Found a beautiful Z28 over here in The Netherlands and just could not resist it...
It's a blue (not sure which blue, but it has been restored and repainted in the original color) Z28 with the LG4 engine. Not too exciting, but the state of the car is. It's jawdropping beautiful. All original first owner documents are still with the car and it seems to have belonged to one of the first patients of the Michael J. Fox Foundation for Parkinsons research. That persomn bought the car new in 1986 and had to sell the car because of her illness in 2011 (!!).
I’m still debating on keeping the stripes on the hood or not. I prefer without
Very nice car. I agree with you on the stripes. But, just need to be really careful when removing to not lift the paint. Since it’s a repaint, who knows how strong the bond is. Use heat, be gentle and peel back on itself (so the pull is parallel to the surface, not perpendicular)
I like the hood stripes. If you do remove them, won't the blue paint underneath be darker? The exposed paint likely fades a bit over time, and the stickers would shield the paint under them and prevent this. You might end up with a different sort of striping.
Are they the same as 3rd gen GTA seats? They look very similar to my car's seats. I think the headrest are different though. And better. The adjustable-height passenger-side headrest in my GTA always slips down to the lowest position.

They are very similar to the 3rd gen GTA seats and share a lot of the same parts. The 4th gen Trans am seats were pretty much GTA seats including the adjustable side bolsters and lumbar, but with different headrests. The 4th gen Firebird seats didn't have the adjustable bolster/lumbar. Pretty comfortable seat.
Are the original emision sticker and hose routing sticker under the hood. if so can you share pics
I'm afraid that after the restoration somebody used very poor reproduction stickers or made these themselves, because they look good but are fuzzy as hell:
