....I'm almost out of pictures!

......but here's a few more!

"Okay sir, but you're missing the A.I.R. and EVAP systems. You can't pass emission's testing that way!"

Look what's at the other end of that air filter!

...and one more of Jerry's fine ride!

The frame has more bracing welded in that I have seen so far. For instance; the front shock mounts have square tubing welded to the upper suspension mounting bracket that completely box them in. This had to have been when it had coil overs on it. You will never see that ZR-1 that dirty again as long as I have her.

Daniel,

I remember when the previous owner bought it and posted up... Wow that is a heck of a Z!

Congrats on the purchase and glad you could come to the event!

....no, for real. These are the last ones, no really I swear!

Saturday's rain & waiting.

the registry's donation for the motorsports park!

On the way home I took this in PA by the NJ border.

The End

Some more pix from the gathering!!

Who's motor is this, do you think? (Hint: It's a 427 cid LT5)

And, how 'bout this one? (Hint: It ain't Dave's!)

Pete (the Greek) posing with a new shirt. Anyone from across the pond recognize this shirt?? (Doesn't Pete look like a Greek god? Which one would that be??)

And one of the FBI "seminars" running waaay into the night!

And, what would BG be without at least a few pix like these. The car over my hood is Dominic's Black Rose. Gotta love it!

It was a terrific get together, for sure. Already looking forward to the next one!

David,

I really love the car it has an interesting history; I just need to attempt to fill in the gaps. I won't miss The Gathering if I can ever help it. I have been a regular since 2001 but missed 09 (Got stuck over in London

) I am ready for next year!

Pete,

Here are the pictures you ask for of the shock bracing.

You can see here how the frame has been welded up at the seams.

Man this car is DIRTY!!! I'm hoping after a few months of work it will be squared away.

Daniel, your car is outstanding. Love the huge Dymag GenII's. I'm sure that it will be immacualte after seeing yor beautiful GS.

Daniel_Mc · 05-19-2011

Thanks Brett!!!

Pete · 05-19-2011

Thanks Daniel

I wonder if all the welding at the seams helps.

If you can take a few more pictures of the front bars the ones Tom posted i need to know how forward they are welded to the frame.

Your Z's chassis must feel/drive like a C5.

Pete

Pete,

Sent you a PM.

I finally have a moment to chime in so...

Katy and I had a blast. This was my first event and it was awesome. The brotherhood and camaraderie Is amazing.

I need to thank EVERYONE I met because all offered great advice, friendship and anything else they had to offer!

I would especially like to thank Dave. He is the first person I spoke with on the forum just less than a year ago and he has taken care of me like a father takes care of a son, even though I am old enough to be his father. He made sure that my daughter Katy and I were taken care of throughout the event. Thanks DAVE!

Dominic, Dave, Mark, Greg, Gorden, and Paul. All helped me solve a few mysteries with my car. Several of them were laying under it with wrenches helping with my stabilizer...
Mark did a Saturday night computer diagnosis of my care at 10:00 PM or so!

I came back with a perfect car and friendships that will last for ever.

Thanks to all!
