my car is almost complete again
hey guys major update....
you know i hit a deer a while back doing like 95 mph pissed off on my way home one night..... well i bought my old 83 Z28 (92 z28 clone) back and took the whole front end off of that and put it on my 86 iroc-z..... she is all purdy again awating a paint job.... ill have the progress pics posted in a couple of days for u guys to see....
i guess i got the best of both worlds... i missed my old 83 z28 alot but the body was gone.... and not worth fixing,,, but now ill have half of it back
