1st Z28

Stuck in the SoCal desert...found this car after I moved here in April from the MidWest, had to have it. Sold my 1998 Avenger to purchase this as my new project. Stock 1994 Z28, Black on Black/Red interior, T-Tops, Flowmaster on stock pipes. Had 138k and needed a new opti and wires, got it for $1500. Clear coat is burned through from all the sand and sun out here and it has the seemingly common separated door skin issue on both...but its my baby.

Already put aluminum intake elbow on, Tinted windows last month, planning on slotted / drilled rotors next month and hopefully a CAI. Goal is to for this to be my street / strip daily driver.

This is my 1st 4th gen and first V8 Camaro, had a 1989 RS v6 manual for a year that was black on black with a micro sized muffler and twin 4" tails, rumbled like a IROC, and as fast as a Yugo. It was just a temp daily driver purchase (but ended up loving the car) while i was rebuilding my previous project from an accident, a mint 1988 Cougar XR7, black w/ a modded 5.0, I've had 2 Fox and 1 MN12 Cougar, all XR7s (5.0 and 4.6)...I'll always have a sweet spot for the fox chassis as its all i've really driven since 15yrs old, but I'm in love with the FBody all over again...

I've got pics to post, but that would require me to not be typing this at work at 1am

You can have a lot of fun with the LT1. Take some time to read through the tech forums, particularly LT1 Based Engine Tech.
