So, while my Camaro's off getting the front clip reinstalled, alignment done and tail pipes made, I talked my Dad into putting a FiTech system on his 79 Z28. Fun fact about this car is that a neighbor up the street owned it for about 15 years when I was growing up. Used to see it cruise slowly by on occasion with the Wide Crager SST's on the back all jacked up. He was single and rode his Harley most of the time with the Camaro on garage duty except for the occasional drive on nice days.
About 1998 Tommy sold it to a buddy of his that jerked the motor and trans out so Dad and I bought it for $1500. We put a 350/350 combo in it and I drove it to college the last couple of years and then he took it back, had it stripped to bare metal and repainted. Unbelievably, the car was totally rust free with original paint and zero body filler.
Long story short, this, along with his '30 Model A streetrod are his toys and he puts a ton of miles on each of them. They get baby'd constantly but driven constantly, rain or shine! Kinda off subject but thought I'd share anyway...
