Beautiful.


My dad had an old 78 Z28


Were still looking for a car to restore.

Did you have that car in your family or did you buy it?

this front i like more, but i prefer 1st gens or 3rd gens over second gens (im sure ill get reamed for the 3rd gen part)
not to take anything away from what you did tho
it came out really good
and i love the color
