Default Convertible ZR-1 Project

Today while waiting for things to dry on the 49th St Rockers, I tore apart the conv rear clip for the next project. A convertible ZR-1. Now that the panels are separated I am ready to cut up 1990 #444 for the conversion.


Baseball, hotdogs, apple pie and chevrolet. This is only on the conv cars.

The speaker housing sits betwen the fender wells and up against the rear of the storage compartment. I'll need to make a mold of this as well.

I bought the bare body tub a couple of yrs ago. It was parted out. Not wrecked. A six SPD conv donor car will be bought for the parts need for rebuilding the Z. The motor from the Turq car will be used once my 427 LT5 is built.

This will be a two yr plan.
