I am very excited to share my newest Build Project with everyone.

My client has given me permission to start a thread on his very cool 1979 Z-28 Camaro. He is a member on here, he may or may not reveal himself....his choice.

This will not be your ordinary all original Z-28 Camaro.....it is a "Day2" Build.

I will let the pictures speak for themselves for now.

Enjoy!

Hi Dan, super build. Looks very high quality!

Have you thought to add a stripe insert to the L88 hood? I was thinking maybe a blue stripe matching the blue color in the stripe trim decals? Similar to the motion cars?

Regardless beautiful restoration !!!

Great looking Z-28 <<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif

Reminds me of one that lived a few streets over from me years ago. It was a 80'ish Berlinetta w/ a L-88 then a 454 that was wicked fast. Also had a 4 point bar and slapper bars. That car has been stuck in my mind the last 34 years...Come to think of it, I think his Mom had a 70 Z with the same combo, black & silver w/ the smoked headlight covers. Dang, that was one cool ride too!
