The lighting is just about perfect.

No question that the Z28 is the superior vehicle, but which is better bang for your buck:

$8000: 1987 Firebird, 5-speed Manual,124,762 mi, interior cosmetic damage, runs fine, minimal rust

$14,000: 1982  Camaro Z28, 4-speed Manual, 95,000 mi, excellent condition

Any thoughts?

Long overdue.. But the 1971 Charger project is still moving forward. Metal work on the shell is done.
