Cleaned up the Z....

Spent a little time on the Z yesterday morning...Had to take advantage of the cool weather early in the day.....I've been working on replacing things little by little on the weekends....Plan is to get the suspension/interior/body done this year and focus on building a new motor next year......

Sharp car! Those wheels look great with that wing. What are your plans for the suspension?

Is that a 8" or 10" wide wheel?

I like how it fills up the wheel well. I am thinking of running that size.

Is it lowered or is that stock ride hight in the rear?

I'm thinking it is an 8'' wheel...(bought the rims/tires used..) The ride height in the rear is from worn out stock springs......When I replace them, I'll probably end up going with some lowering springs just to keep the current stance.......I wanted to drop the front a little more, but I already scrape going in/out of my drive....
