Default Re: '69 Z28 RS

Yes you read correct. The actual amount invested into my Z28 over the last 20 months is 75K US or about 100K Canadian. It is an X33D80 Rallye Green Z/28 with a GM Canada Build Sheet and Protecto Plate. I refitted the entire car with all new parts in and out. When it came to painting the car on May 5th, I had Rallye Green on the mixing Table and said screw it at the last minute...paint it orange with black stripes. That was my heart telling me to paint it a color I liked rather than what the build sheet showed, and thats when I decided to go Crossram M22 rather than install the freshened #'s 302 and M21. Thats another reason I am into this so fat. The second DZ drive line was another 15K. Either way...it was built as a keeper and will most likely stay in the family for years to come. I added the RS option to it and finished the front lights yesterday. I understand why LV wants an RS Z/28. They are purely a sexy looking ride!
