Finally brought "The One" home.

Superstitiously I haven't posted about buying this until it was actually in my driveway. Agreed to buy it a couple weeks ago and my son and I went to go pick it up yesterday 6 hours away in Ohio.

1992 Real Z03 Z28 Vert in Arctic White with only 34k on it. It is in amazing shape and has def. been taken care of. Bone stock except the radio and keyless entry.

Beautiful! Your heritage stripes make me want to get some.

I'm surprised though, I thought all the TPI cars went up to 145. Strange a Z28 with auto and the little engine

Re: Finally brought "The One" home.

Very nice! I like those heritage Z28s with the colored grilles

Just noticed there’s no tonneau release between the window switches.. where did they put that on the later Vert’s?

Look in the overhead shot of the complete interior. Right next to the drivers side rear seats you can see the edge of the trim piece around it.

Everyone else, thanks for the compliments. I am in love with this thing and thrilled I was finally able to pick one up in this condition.
