Re: newbie here 83 z with pics

Very nice car! And a clean engine bay - and with a a ceasefire in it at that!!

I'd keep the engine as is...the cross fire engines are getting more rare each year.

Re: newbie here 83 z with pics

Thank you 89ROC-Z 1MeanZ and Chazman. I try to keep it up in the best shape I can. Right now it looks sad, its all sanded down. Its getting a new paint job. Dont worry its getting a factory paint job not a custom. lol So by spring it will have a nice new red paint job with the silver ground effects. I also fixed my seat. I found some of the upholstery I was needing. I got Lucky!!! Here is a before and after pic of the seat.
