Default Re: ALL BLACK 1970 Z28

This is the STORY on My BLACK Z-28 1973
My Friend ordered it New along with a New Black & White Vega GT.
It was Extra Cost (PRIMER)it took forever to come in after it was built. He was told it went to Lordstown Vega Plant to be painted. He called me when it finally came in to look at it. The paint was Terrible, bad paint with white overspray everywhere. The dealer tried to color coat it and buff it out. It still looked bad. He REFUSED it. He agreed to pay half of the price to repaint it and Chevy paid for part of it. It then was a good job. He sold it to me when he was getting married. One of the cars I SHOULD have KEPT!!

JB, that sux; I love the T-Type Regals even better than a GN.

Finding a clean one today is a major feat, unfortunately.

Nova looks like Sam's beautiful, unrestored car! What a time capsule.

Phil - those Norwood guys would really appreciate this youtube video.

As a fellow German it makes me feel good to see technology put to practicallity. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/worship.gif[/img]
I don't see it as putting <span style="font-weight: bold"><span style="font-style: italic">&quot;assembly line&quot;</span></span> labor out of work, rather creating work for the engineers, designers, computer software geeks and machinest's that built such a complex.... [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/scholar.gif[/img] [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/scholar.gif[/img]

Lets hope they don't run out of COAL. Power outages would suck... LOL

I think they would to some extent... But the impressions of the line they keep
are pretty much based in the assembly era that they worked in. Some like the body drop era when the cars were mostly hand assembled while some prefer the technology of the Towveyor era. The 8mm and the video that exists today puts it all in prospective.
