Re: Ouch, my poor Z28
I received a few more pics from Tim today and his comments on the progress of the repairs.....
I was able to take some pictures of the Z in its final stages of repair. The car is missing some windshield clips and when these arrive the dated windshield will go in. It’s also missing the passenger side headlight bezel and that should be in shortly. The repairs are coming along nicely, it’s a car again. The paint looks great and the color match is very good. About the only things left are the new rocker moldings as these were damaged in the accident and a front wheel alignment. I’m looking forward to getting the car back. I’ll send more pictures when the car is completed.

Re: Ouch, my poor Z28
Very nice Tim! Congrats.
Was the car painted from the doors forward?

Re: Ouch, my poor Z28
Yes, the doors were painted. The passenger door had minor damage to it from where the fender interfered with it in the accident.
I thought about painting the rear of the car, but the paint was always very nice, so both the shop and I felt it wasn’t necessary. All in all, the car didn't need much, but we did a few things to bring it up a notch including putting a thin bit of foam in the original drivers seat to raise it from years of being used, and replacing the windshield with a dated piece.

Re: Ouch, my poor Z28
Tim, looks like the shop does quality work and they know how to work on a classic to bring it back up to or above pre-collision standards. Roger
