What's up,....thanks for stopping by to check out my Z28! So far I've loaded about 500 pictures in 30 pages of what I call: "My Public Photo Album". I hope you enjoy them all!!

This one is when I made "Car of the Month" for July 2006.

This one is definitely one of my favorites. My car is featured in a 2007 Camaro Calendar. This is obviously the one thing that's made me feel like all the hard work and money I put into it was completely worth it!!!

Ok, so the actual story begins here: (each page from 1-30 is a progression of the modification process)
These are the first set of pictures I took the day she became mine. (9/26/05) I was lucky enough to find this original owner car who kept the miles very low, and also kept it in flawless condition by keeping it garaged and out of the weather.

As you can see from this one, the odometer shows only 18,195 original miles. I bought it with just over 18,000 miles on it, so after cruising it around for a couple of days, I finally got around to snapping a few photos. To enlarge any picture, click directly on the photo!

Here's one of the original leather interior. As you'll see later on, there's many interior mods that have been done to it.

I added these a few days after I got it, except for the obvious Z28 emblem.
