Hey everyone, my name is Shane living in mesa az!. I bought a aqua blue 1996 z28 last week with 106k miles! I purchased it knowing there were some engine problems for 1500$! Not bad I think, has a straight body no dents or bondo. But the az sun has ruined the clear . She is in a good friend of mines hands being torn apart and repaired. 1 thrown rod and 4 bent. I have had some questions already and they were answered promptly! Great community glad to be apart of it.

Ps: would love some website recommendations for bolt ons and interior options!

 

Welcome to CamaroZ28.com!!!

Good to see another LT1 being brought back to life.

 

Welcome here as well Shane,

Congrats on your Camaro! It's great to have you here.

Thanks for the warm welcome! I'm glad to have a camaro and I'm glad to have chosen this old lt1, Was debating selling her because the damage was more then bargained for but after a few hours together I could not let her go . Soon her paint will be restored to a show room finish, interior reupholstered, and that beautiful lt1 purring like the day It left the factory!

 

96zee,

You're very welcome! Yes, you must hold onto her. I wish you all the best with the restoration. Keep us updated on everything too if you don't mind.

I will definitely keep a thread up to date, once her engine is running good I'll post a before and after video. Then go from there as the restoration moves forward! Quick question though, I need a few opinions on the color. Redo her original paint, or go with all black!?
