New project
Well after getting rid of my first black '91 Z28 auto hardtop, then getting a black '92 Z28 ttop 5 speed, then selling that.... last week I bought another black '91 Z28 hardtop. This one has original black interior, 5 speed, and only 135,000 miles on it! It does need a tune up, and small body repair from the previous owner's brother running into a parking post while trying to park 
I will have pics up shortly...but I am on the lookout for a drivers side camaro fender, 85-92 camaro front bumper cover, and 91-92 front chin spoiler..so keep a lookout for those parts guys.
***EDIT*** I'll also be looking for a dash pad, but who isn't?

Re: New project
Here are the pics, it doesn't have the original Z28 wheels but the 88-90 irocs are close enough lol. I will be getting new wheels anyway so it doesn't matter....and yes it's dirty inside and out.

Re: New project
Not sure yet on the wheels..want to go with something either black or gunmetal.
For those who havent seen them, here are how my last two black Z28's looked..
The first one..a black '91 Z28 hardtop, originally a 305 TPI, auto car. Bought it with 188,000 miles on it back in august of 2005. Went through 3 motors and finally the tranny went as well...this was my breaking point as I was going through some personal stuff that didn't make it practical to keep at the time. Anyway here it is..

Re: New project
So I used the money from selling the '91 as well as my tax return to buy my '92 z28 back in february. I saw it on craigslist..originally a blue car, but painted black by the previous owner. It had 235,000 miles, was 5 speed which really appealed to me, had ttops which I didnt prefer, but it was the closest thing to my '91 that I could find, and it ran..which was the most important part. It also came with tan interior, but I converted it all to black using mostly parts from vinces '86 that was wrecked shortly after. I was able to make money off of it by selling it and extra cash was really handy at the time..so I let this one go back in July of this year.
Here's how my '92 looked when I let it go..

Re: New project
Unfortunately I don't have any more pics of the console swap. But all I did was trim, trim, trim,and cut the stock thirdgen little bits at a time until the 4th gen console would fit, leaving only the radio pod section inctact. Then I installed the ls1 console. The carpet that covers the thirdgen console hid the cut marks and made it look pretty clean.

Re: New project
Those wheels look awsome on that car. Can't go wrong with gun metal.
