I had this car torn apart for about 3 years. I swapped interiors out of my 89 cause I wanted it all black. Converted it from auto to a manual. Did a ton of suspension work and got the wheels on. Still undecided on what hood to put on.

 

looks awsome =] always loved the black camaros.

 

Thanks man.

 

i cant wait to give my car a fresh coat of paint! it needs it bad!

 

Looks good! They favor ROH Drift-R wheels. What wheels are they?

 

man that thing looks killer. and i love the wheels. how hard was the manual swap?

 

The swap was a serious pain in the a**. There were no pre marked holes on where the floor woulda been punched out if it was a manual. I had to take countless pictures and trace the floor with paper on my 89 rs manual floor board. Definetly took some time. The rims are actually american racing "killer" rims. 20x8.5 in the front and a 20x10 in the rear. I wanted to go with a 19" up front but they didn't offer it on this rim and I couldnt pass up the deal the guy shot at me.

 

Great looking cars and garage! How big is that thing? Also, neat little S10 truck convertible!

 

sick car ....... I would just leave on that hood, keep it nice and clean looking.

 

That's awesome looking;...who said 20s looked like crap?

 

 

Hey Method_z28

Personaly I always wonder what I would do to my hood ran across ideas but none really interesed me we basically have the same cars but yours well looks way better! What I would or what I am going to is get the stock hood in iberglass and add the hood louvers, thats what you should od.

And what rims are those?

Tony.

 

I absolutely love the way black 91+ Z28's look, They're so menacing. I say keep the stock hood.

 

nice ride

 

Great looking car!!! I'd say the 3 years of work was definitely worth it!!!! Very well done!!!!!

 

nice ride man. rims look sick. love the black on black. Nice to see someone else rockin some 20's cause i dont think there is that many on this forum.

 

Car is lookin' great. Love the rims, they look just right on your car.

 

Car is sexy. I usually don't really care for murdered out cars... But this is SICK!

 

I see that you're in Cleveland and I am too. Would you mind working on my Firebird? I would love for you to do my engine swap! If you do your own work. Give me a holla,

Chris

 

Thanks everybody. These pics actually dont give the car and justice. I need to take some outside. The car just looks mean with the black on black rims I think. I was a lil skeptical with the 20 up front but when I got them on and took a look it was just meant to be. I don't think it woulda looked as good if the rims were all black with no polished lip.

sosofresh I emailed you back.

 

Very very nice. Has a real serious look about it. I really like the stock Z hood but if you want a different suggestion, look at the Jongbloed style 3" cowl hoods. Sometimes they're called Sunoco style. I've only seen two on cars and one is on mine so its not a look you see a lot. Ebay has them usually, plus they're fiberglass so our small hood struts can lift it easily. The cowl follows the normal hood lines so you could put the blisters on, which would look sick IMO. Awesome car again...

 

keep the hood.
and we also need pics of the interior....

 

just out of curiosity, did you have to run spacers with those wheels??

 

Now thats my definition of badass. Soon i will get rid of the green with gold rally stripes for something similar to you method.

As like others, when i saw the thread tittle i was kinda iffy about it, but you pulled it off wonderfully.

 

Yeah I had to run spacers and I shaved a bit of the rear lip. When I would hit a serious bump they would rub a little bit. I took them to a friends shop and used his bridgeport he had in the garage and shaved a lil over an 1/8 of an inch off and not one problem. I even had 2 people and put the subframes on so they didnt rub even with the added weight. if it wasn't a 20 x 10 in the rear and a 20 x 8.5 I coulda jut got a smaller spacer and not have any probs but I had to get the 20 x 10....especially after a ton of people around here said it wouldnt fit.

 

Dam F U C K that car is freaking ballin!

Tony.

 

a poster boy for being "murdered out"

 

looks good, out of curiosity, why are all the photos labeled "ebay" ? Is this how your purchased the car, or are you listing it?

 

Great job on the car, man it looks fantastic.

 

damm man ur car looks so sharp wish mine could look that way. how much does a paint job like that cost.

 

Sick ride, seriously...

 

Haha no. I was taking a ton of pictures of alot camaro and other parts I sell on ebay when I also took these pics. I have had the car for like 6 years. No way in hell its going on ebay or me selling it.

What do you mean...cause I put some rims on it?

 

Looks G R E A T! I love black camaros, thats why I drive one. I agree with Blew-By-You on the Jongbloed hood option. Otherwise leave it that way. Two things you might consider is doing the amber delete on the taillights since you got the cleared out lights up front and raising your dual/duals up a little bit, other than that I think you deserve a break.

 

i have never been a big fan of black wheels on a black car, but your car looks retarded, killer sweet man, i love it.

 

Damn, it looks ****ing awesome man.

 

That rear-end looks 10 kinds of awesome.
Nice job!
How hard was the auto to manual conversion?

 

Murdered out means the all black theme. And your right about black rims. I think all black rims should have a chrome/polished lip. Car looks real good and I would keep the stock hood too. If you think about changing it, I would do an SS hood and keep it simple.
