Day 2 69 Z/28
 
I brought this car home from San Diego 6 years ago. It's a Norwood built X77D80 car that was raced out there. It still has it's original engine and my brother-in-law, Dennis and I finally got it ready and running. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ns/burnout.gif

Mark:

It's kind of a hot rod. The stripes are wrong so, we didn't get lost on the detail stuff. I grew up about 4 blocks from Nickey so, after I added the new Hooker headers, I couldn't help but sticker it up.

Very nice car and looks period correct. I like the silver grill idea too. Sticks out more than the stripes being wrong. Nice car and great color! https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...iggthumpup.gif https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ins/3gears.gif

I'll defend the black grille by saying isn't that what Day 2 is all about? Scenario: Maybe on Day 2 the young new owner wanted a more sinister look so he rattle-canned the grille black. Day 2 is the process of getting away from factory stock and not necessarily doing it like everyone else would. Are we now going to ruin the freedom of Day 2 modifications by limiting it to just speed equipment and wheels but the grill has to be the correct silver or it's wrong?? I beseech you my fellow car lovers: Let us not kill Day 2 with too many "rules"!

And let us understand a major tenet of our hobby: Of course you would do it differently but it's not your car!

I yield the remainder of my time. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ns/scholar.gif

Beautiful. Just beautiful. Wouldn't change a thing.

Gotta agree with Bill about the black grill.....leave it. It's shame somebody can't post pictures of a car they're proud of without having an "expert" showing how smart they are and pointing out things that are wrong with the car. Same thing just happened with C. Lill's lift-off hood Hemi Challenger and it's grill color. This Camaro looks great.....thanks for posting photos!
