Pics of white ZR-1's on my movida



My car has a 383 with many more mods. However my ECM took a crap and my best 1/4 time is a 14.7 with 1.8 and 1.9 60 foots with street tires I hooked it up to a scanner after my runs and found out it ran the 14.7 with 17 trouble codes and a bad knock coming from my smog pump causing the knock sensor to pull me back. I even added a 75 shot of NOS to it and didnt run 1 tenth faster. I'll fix it soon though Yes the rears are 17x11 315's

I needed spacers for the front but my rear is from a 4thgen and they fit perfect with an adjustable panhard rod.

I have the 9 1/2 on the back of mine I would have loved to go to the corvette 11" rim but didn't think it would fit under the wheel lip. I have a adjustable panhard rod on mine and the 4th gen rear I would love to hear more of how you got it to work. I never thought it would. Our cars are very similar except mines black.

Those look awesome on your car. I'd never be able to pull off white wheels. I couldn't handle having to wash the brake dust off them every other day.

I thought about getting mine painted like that after I saw it. Very sweet. I want mine to be red or white with some kinda of stripes or something on it. Anyone with any ideas? I want it to be different though. But your car is prolly one of my top 5 favorites if not my top favorite.

I am buying that hood and a white paint job being done, with Ram Air 355 written on the side on the hood.

Thanks for all the nice complements. I really tried to do something that was original and looked good. The pictures honestly dont do the car justice, for some reason seeing it in person really helps understand how and why the stripes are where they are. They actually make the car look wider and sharper than it is. They also accent the muscle look of the bodystyle these cars came with. I'll try to get more pictures for everyone but heres a few I have and a list of mods.........

I've loved your car from the moment I first saw the driveway pics. The paint job and hood fit so perfect.

I've never been a fan of the Vette wheels but they work really well. Gives it a really smooth and complete look.

Good looking car, too much pin striping though. Ditch the striping and put a set of the Berger SS stripes on it that come on the 4th gens. That would look sweet with your hood!

Its not pin striping it's PAINT. There is no way in hell I would ever put those "race stripes" everyone has. I will never put those stripes on any car I ever own. Never never never never. They are more common than ricers, they only look good in my opinion on older cars anyway. I've seen a few newer cars pull them off with luck but more times than not they look just plain nasty.

My new project is a GUNMETAL GREY 1991 Z28 exact same stripes and hood except the stripes will be dark blue with maroon outlines. I'll have white Z06 wheels on this one though, a 383 LT-1 and a ATI procharger. I already have most of the parts for my second 91 Z but I'm having trouble finding a 305 hardtop w/auto and red interior. I need to finish a few other cars first but thats onyl going to take another 2 months before the second 91 goes into full swing.
