Well, here's a picture of my '74 Z. I guess I would have to say it's day 2. The only thing I did since the original owner was change the back tires because they were worn out. The wheels and front tires he put on almost 30 years ago. I tracked him down and bought 2 of the original wheels from him. You can see them hanging on the wall just over the roof.

Darren did my car get the day 2 bug started here ?? LOL https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/grin.gif and your car looks really nice .the motor has that day2 look aready i would look for a green fiberglass flex a lite fan and get a edelbrock tarantula intake also mentioned in this thread paint your headers with VHT "white" hi temp paint. now the interior if you have a B&M star shifter that'll be correct i've got the B&M quik-clik in mine.now for gauges i've got the U-41 gauge package in my camaro but i'm using sun blue-line oil press,volts and water temp gauges along with a sun blue line super tach. i did the same thing and removed the center console and mounted the shifter to the tunnel. now for the hood 3 types of scoops were used the grump lump,mopar pro-stock and the L88 any of these would look good.the hoods back then were just painted flat black not body color.now mine i've got a L88 hood but i grafted a grump lump on to it and it looks awesome,i'll get pics when it's finished. the wheels your running now didn't come out until the mid 70's so if i were you i would look into ansen sprint or us-indy mags.on mine i'm running hard to find 15x4 us-indy mags for the front.we always ran different rims back then or mismatched set like in my pics. you could run 15x10 torque thrust "D" for the rear and 15x4 slots on the front. ET wheels are still around and have the old gasser style wheels available ,those look cool too. here is some cool vintage wheelshttp://www.etwheels.com/et/classic5.html

How about a set of Gabriel High-Jacker air shocks to go along with the Lakewood traction bars.

Oh yeah, and maybe a mural across the deck lid. Now how many remember that??

I am making my list now.

Hey they are great shackles. Just one notch though. Don't want the springs to bow the other way. RICK H. You know I am on board. So is GTO DON. He is a day-2 guy himself! https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/beers.gif https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ins/3gears.gif https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ins/3gears.gif
