Its a complete 94' Z28 6-Speed Roller, has a seized motor, but the body has under 80k miles on, complete with everything else too. I'm just waiting to get some more pics, and find out how to get it to my sisters house in Hawthorne to be stored for a few more months. Possibly have the work started while I'm still here in the 'Stan! Excited would be an understatement right now. Big plans, I'm thinking of going with a scheme similar to the new 1LE Camaro

Looks like some fresh paint. Where is the car now and where does it need to go?

shadowfire 08-05-2012 05:23 PM

1LE rocks make sure you go with a aluminum race craft drive shaft

zuuhlsT/A 08-05-2012 06:05 PM

Car looks really clean. Good luck with it

greenformula92 08-05-2012 10:06 PM

Oh man I am ready for this build to get started!!

WayFast84 08-06-2012 12:28 AM

I cant wait to see what you end up doing with it. Should look killer if you do the hood and stripe like that.

Anti_Rice_Guy 08-06-2012 07:21 AM

Saw that earlier, congrats! Can't wait to see the progress and end result.

The car is up in Wantage just past Vernon, I'm trying to reach back to a few people back home with trailers to see what it'll cost to get it to either my parents house or my brother in laws in Hawthorne.

From what the owner has told me, the original owner blew a head gasket, attempted to do the work themselves, and let the car sit with an exposed motor. The person who owns it now has kept it under wraps in his barn for the past year, so all it really needs is a motor.

The game plan is to take leave sometime in April/May of 2013 when I'm back in the states and hopefully strip both cars down and swap as many salvageable parts from the Silver car to the Red car over a few weekends. I'll be parting out the entire drivetrain from the Red car to recoup some of the funds. I'm trying to save as much as possible on this swap, I still need a daily driver when I return to California.

I'm trying to do this one a little differently, the 1LE scheme is generally where I'm headed for the body, but I'm really liking the idea of a matte bronze 17" wheel. The 355 will definitely stay the same, maybe do a little more suspension tweaking if the budget allows, and i'm definitely going to take my time and do it right.
