Thread: I'm a proud owner of a 82 Z28

Well, here it is. I went to get it this morning and it went pretty good, it actually fired right up. I got it all cleaned up and your always hoping for that diamond under the dust, well this one is more like a ruby It's pretty good for its age but when you find a barn car, it gets pooped on a lot by birds and stains the paint. The paint is getting a bit thin on the hood and it has seen it's fair share of sun. But all in all I'm happy with it. It defiantly needs a bit more power and it would be a blast to drive, so I might play with the 305 a bit , just to wake it up. I don't know what gears it has but with the 3 speed trans it runs about 2700 at 55 mph, so I might be putting my 700r4 in when I swap out the exhaust sometime. But honestly, I love the car even though its a gen 3.
