It's been a quiet week, so it's worth discussing again - rule #1 must be working [img]/ubbthreads/images/icons/grin.gif[/img]

I was amazed that they went through all that work to graft the back/bottom half of the car on, but didn't relace that door with a southwest unit [img]/ubbthreads/images/icons/blush.gif[/img] The floor work looks good to me, must have been a lot of work. And, I guess they would have had to use the floor from another dual exhaust Camaro to get the hanger plates on both frame rails. I'm certainly no ZL1 expert, but the car looked really nice in the final photos, dusk blue is one of my favorite colors.

The Dual exhaust specific hanger plate/reinforcement (welded to the frame rail) is only specific to one side (drivers)of a Camaro,and exact die cut reproduction plates have been/are available to weld to any frame rail.[img]/ubbthreads/images/icons/shocked.gif[/img]

No one would know the doors were lightened.But of course if you brought it to a show and you caught someone taking the door panel off..

I personally think that it is cool that he left the drilled out door on the car. Looking at the web site, I don't know if he did this, but that blue "think win" sticker on the dash would have been cool to leave as well. Like Marlin said it is a really cool part of this car's racing heritage. [img]/ubbthreads/images/icons/cool.gif[/img]

Sometimes when a car requires "significant restoration" it can be prudent to retain some of the parts , pieces, or scars in order to prove that it is "the" car you say it is. Obviously, photo documentation of the resto is a must also.

Click onto ZL-1#40 and check out the resto on the dark green car. I found the bb x-member with "427" very interesting. I know that 427 and even ZL1 was crayoned on the fender extensions but didnt know it got crayoned on the x-member.

I wonder why they only drilled out 1 of the doors? I personally like the "think win" sticker and the drill treatment to the door. I wonder how much that would lighten a Chevelle door...
