Trans-Am inspired 68 Z28

[youthpastor]

Here's a new project we are working on-

It started as an overpriced- underrepresented ebay find- It's supposed to be a real 68 Z but the 302 is out of another Z and the protecto-plate is long gone...so instead of a 100 point restoration, we are doing the next best thing- cutting it up

The build is based around the idea that a guy walks into a Chevy dealership in '68 to buy a Z28 to go weekend racing. He loves to see the Trans-Am racing heros flogging thier cars but needs to keep his on the street for daily transportation- with a twist- he has acess to 2010 technology!

Everything Speedtech offers for a first gen will be installed. Both front and rear suspension systems, headers, body mounts, etc. Jason Rushforth will supply the wheels and rendering, We are installing DSE deep-tubs. Engine and trans will be an LS2 and T-56

enjoy

Thanks man

here's a pic at the blaster's





ebay buyers beware...lots of stuff was hidden, when we got the car back from media we ended up needing a whole new front clip, deck lid, pass door and both quarters

Not much left of the original body. Great to see it's in good hands now. Keep the up dates coming.
