Re: SS badge or keep it Z
There weren't ever any Corvette SS models so I would say it seems out of place.

Re: SS badge or keep it Z
Man the more comments I hear the more i am tempted to put it on....how does a car with all the options deleted and a 500hp motor get put into a category of 22" rims and curb feelers....

Re: SS badge or keep it Z
Lee, checkout the 1994 up S10 SS emblem. I had a new 94 ss and it seems like the emblem was smaller than what you have on your car. They have a black background with red letters type emblem also.

Lee, I for one like it. You should do the SS center caps as well. Are you considering loosing the flip up lighting and removing the fogs for the F-Body lighting? The SS hood was not even cut for the flip up lights. That with the side gill treatment and you would have it down. I don't know if the size of the SS is off or it is the color? but something is just a bit off. Do you plan on leaving it red?

Re: SS badge or keep it Z
Headlights were from an 88 GP.....not sure I will go that far....the hood was a Toldeo Pro hood made od Kevlar and a lexan rear window, with a makeshift alum frame. Wish GM would make cars like that for production as Porsche and Lambo have done... the Porsche RS America is a great example of how porsche miixes up their lineup to keep it interesting, imagine how much more interesting our cars would be if the 6K+ produced offered more unique and rare options like the 60s cars.

Re: SS badge or keep it Z
Would you know how involved it would be to do the headlight conversion? I would love to do this to the 89.
BTW I think you should go all the way with it.  Daniel |

Re: SS badge or keep it Z
If you are going to make a snakskinner replica yes, if not, no. There are a lot of cars with "ss" badges, not very many with "ZR-1" slapped on the back.
