very nice, but why is the roof and rear stripes so much wider than the front hood stripes? or is that just the pic looking like that?

i like the color combo also. the red isnt the stock red its a little different shade....more red. the pic is just making it look like the stripes are wider, theyre all the same width cept i think they narrow down a tiny bit on the front fascia. Theres PLENTY of work to be done. still needs a 350/T56 combo put in her along with some disk brakes, 3.73's, black interior. theres plenty to keep me busy. now i need to ask you guys....should i keep the headlight pockets body colored or go with black??

congrats on the awesome looking Z! sounds like you already have a lot of good ideas on what to start upgrading, but don't forget about the suspension.

sweet looking 91.. very nice find!! so.. what'd ya pay?
I looked and looked around here for a 91 or 92.. only found one, a decent looking 91 that was not loaded, and 305 auto.. just not my cup of tea.. anyway I settled for a mint '88 iROC.
I like the looks.. great colour combo and nice stance.

the interior is grey right now. paid 5500 but it has a replacement lb9 with 50k on it and also a rebuilt tranny with shift kit, posi rear, great condition interior, 6 point roll bar, 3" exhaust with flowmaster, 10" sub and amp. The tails i just did this weekend by taking the lenses off and painting the inside with testors #1605. worked great
