Re: 1969 Z28 Restoration
I'll get a better picture. They are as shipped from Norwood, I used a custom mixed black with Lemans blue overspray on the bottom and white overspray on the firewall.

Re: 1969 Z28 Restoration
that would be awesome, I'm about to spray my floors and have been torn, my current thought is black/gray PPG Concept GM underhood mix and trying to decide on overspray, your car looks awesome

Re: 1969 Z28 Restoration
Mixing the paints has been the most time consuming part of this project. Thank God the black car is around for direct reference.

Re: 1969 Z28 Restoration
After prep I shot the black mix, 2nd was gray primer over spray, finally I shot the Lemans Blue overspray.
***If the car were a style trim car it would have then had Blacked out rockers the over spray would have then covered a good bit of the Blue and gray over spray.    The non style trim cars X77, X44, have what appears to be more color but actually they are just missing the blacked out rocker over spray.

Re: 1969 Z28 Restoration
Thank you, these pictures are very helpful, I can now see why the blue overspray appeared gray, I would never have thought to use gray primer over the black yet under overspray color.

Re: 1969 Z28 Restoration

Re: 1969 Z28 Restoration
The Original Sub frame bolts and Washer set ups, this is being discussed on the CRG as well as it seems the expensive repro's are not correct.
Original front sub frame to body mounting bolt assembly (68 and EARLY 69... change in the AIM is Sept. RBW BOLT - lock washer - Spring washer (silver) - Flat Washer which appears to be heat treated steel. The undercoating was shot at an almost perpendicular angle to the bolt head from about 9. The swath on the back was blocked from the undercoating and subsequently rusted. The cupped washer was covered however after flexing during removal it flaked off easily.    RAD MOUNT BOLTS - LEFT REPRO RIGHT ORIGINAL    Chambered Exhaust retainer  Original rear fuel line bracket  Original molding clips... they are nice enough to reuse... lol
