1970 RS Z28 Build Thread

[Noahf]

I havnt been posting updates lately but thats mostly because ive been to lazy to take photos. Most of the work I have been doing is tedious boring not fun to photograph work. Like pressing in new wheel studs.

After the car started, I took a bunch of stuff off and sent it to powder coat. That took about 3 weeks because for what ever reason 1 week doesnt mean 1 week anymore. I also received my breaks.

Teaser:



I wish I could just run the engine like this. looks so mean.








Firewall prepped for some sexiness. I completed this but those photos are on a different phone.



parts back from powder coating. loooking sexy and awesome.



front end bolt kit. all individually labelled. quite useful.




Has to reuse some of the old clipbolts and they were a little dirty. got to use the cabinet sand blaster for the first time. thing works well.



inner fenderwells and rad support installed. looking good.




rotors installed with ARP extended wheel studs. mostly for aesthetics.





wilwoods installed.






this is the rear disc from summit installed. kinda sad i had to go with this but this is the only rear kit i found that will work with stock rims. I wanna get this beast on the road and now wait another few months to save up for rims + bigger breaks.



all new steering parts being installed.


will post some more photos tomorrow.
