Picked up the 69 RS Z-28 this morning
 

Sent the kids to grandma's yesterday. Left the house at 0-dark-hundred this morning with the wife (who was NOT happy) to go to Mississippi and pick up the Z. Stopped by granny's on the way home and picked up the rugrats, then on home. My wife said she felt like Sanford and Son. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/smile.gif

In any case, it is way HOT here today (Good ole' nawlins) so I just slid er off the trailer and am waiting for it to cool off.

I took a few quick pics with the PDA, once it cools I'll make a few more with the real camera.

Also, the Trim Tag is a X-33 (no D80) and there was no rear spolier on the car. I know the cowl hood was an option (this one has the flat hood) but I guess the spoiler was as well? Any thoughts?

DZ stamping on the carb. Found the base for the air cleaner in the trunk.
Edit:
(guess this one is a bit blurry, I'll take a better one later)

There's nothing like a project to get your blood flowing again! That one's mint compared to this old thing I found in 1981 in a junkyard! Enjoy the project and give us more autopsy photos as you take them. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/grin.gif

This one's a project all right!
It is unusual in that it was rusting from the top down, rather than the other way.
It is awesome to find a 38k mile survivor. It even still has the am radio in it. Interior is all there and in good shape relatively speaking. Floor boards are solid.

As soon as it cools off, I'll go look some more.

Is that the 1971 Hemi 'Cuda convertible?

Re: Picked up the 69 RS Z-28 this morning
 

No, That was my first foray into 71 Cuda Convertibles. It was a 71 383, automatic ragtop. I traded a 72 Vega that my neighbors abandoned in my yard for it. (With my luck it probably turned out to be a Yenko Stinger Vega https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ns/naughty.gif) The Cuda was abandoned by an Air Force Guy at Lowry Air Force base in Denver in the early 1980s and was towed to this lot. All original drivetrain intact, but from Rochester NY originally = salt. It even had the title in the glove compartment! Here's the finished product in 1985. It was far worse than the Z28 pictured above: when you sat in the driver's seat, your feet were flat on the pavement below, Flintstone-style.
