Nice car.What's the 1% that needs finishing?</font>

Just little odds and ends. I had the front alignment done today. I still want to finish glaze it. Then just a series of short cruises to be sure it won't leave me stranded.

That looks really sweet. Is it all numbers matching? or do you not care (mirrors)? Just FYI the front grille in 74 had an emblem and place to mount it. I don't think anyone makes a repro for 74.
Regardless, it came out reall nice and I really like the Red with white interior.

nice looking car! it's great to rebuild a car and be able to add the touches that you wish they incorporated from the factory - it simply makes it your own.</font>

The engine, tranny and rear end as well as all the other Z28 parts are all from the same 74 Z28 but not this car. The original grill got punched out many years ago which worked out because I wanted to eliminate all emblems from the car anyway. I don't like holes in sheetmetal; it always rusts.

Thanks to everyone for the kind words!!
