Default Indiana Dreamin'

The car is out for the first time in six years. This is my brother-in-law, Dennis and my best friend, Greg (AZ lawyer) just out the other day Indiana Dreamin' and burnin'up the T/As! Greg was in for the ND vs. Michigan Game in Ann Arbor.

This my shop. The Z/28 was tucked in the back for the last six years.

It didn't take too much to get it up and on the road. Easy for me to say as Dennis spent two days wet sanding and buffing. After the carburetor rebuild, new headers, gas tank, exhaust, rear springs, steering box rebuild, valve covers, ignition wires, battery, radiator, steering wheel, Tach and gas gauge, assorted wiring... Well, I guess it did take some doing but look at the smiles on their faces...priceless!

Reminds me of the '69 Z that John Buttera's son resto-modded 30 years ago--I think in Car Craft or Hot Rod.

Great looking car by the way. Love the Day 2 touches. And the colour. My kinda car - you can lean up against it. Be great to see it with some G60-15 Polyglas GTs on the back and F60s on the front....that'd be a Day 2 Sweet Spot right there too....probably wouldn't ride or handle as nice but would look like Summer of '69 fer sure. Congrats.
