I posted this on DSMtalk, but I also wanted to get it posted up here. On account of my laziness, Im mostly copying and pasting what I posted there :D

Well since the car show was cancelled yesterday, and my car is still all perty, I figured Id see what some other DSMers thought of my whip. That and I really havent had a rundown post on my car yet.

My daily driver with 158,000 (it will see 200,000 +)

Black Headliner
Tinted windows (5% fronts, 2.5% quarters, tinted myself)

Possibly Cam gears
Some brand of struts and springs to drop about an inch (suggestions?)

Thats pretty much all I can think of for now. Let me know what you guys think of it. As of Sept. 19th I will have owned this car, my first DSM, for one year.

very clean! i like it alot.

paint job recently?? man its so clean i wanna touch hah

Very clean, nice ride.

Thanks guys. The only parts I had painted recently are the front bumper, new hood, and repainted ground effects. In different lights you can tell the slight difference but its better than the rust hole that was in the hood before. Its changed alot since I got it, and I definately like it alot more now.

nice, i wanna see picts of the 74 or what 75 camaro sitting next to the garage.

Ha, good eye. Its a 74 Z-28. 350 with a hurst 4 speed.


This is the only pic I have right now, its 3 or so years ago and on my cell phone.

curious where you got your paint at? you repainted it stock color right?

I got it at a local paint store called "Lake City Paint". And yes it is stock color. I just cross referenced my paint code (A-52, minden silver pearl) to DuPonts codes, she mixed it up on the spot for me. Came out pretty good I think. There is a chart on DSM-tuners I believe that references all the paint codes to dupont and a few other paint manufacturers.

Wow, very clean and nice. How nice is the unibody (rust)? Ever had the vinyl top off or inspected for rotting around the drip rails? If not, try to do that so you dont get surprised one day. Only downside to vinyl tops is the damage they hide.

Numbers matching? 12 bolt rear end?

Its a nice Z.keep it that way.

very clean and simple

Youre about to be upset with my Dad. I know I am. He doesnt keep it in storage anymore, so It sits outside in all the elements. It is starting to rust pretty bad on the door and hood. And you can notice a little bit of rust bubble underneath the vinyl top. But yeah it was an all original Z with a "350 turbo-fire", Hurst 4 speed, and 12 bolt rear end.
