This winter I am going to add some more things to polish, I just can't get enough of the stuff! I picked up new stock powder coated parts Atli & AC bracket along with the hood shocks, and sent them to my bud in Florida to do his polish magic on them, and they are looking freaking awesome! I looked at after market parts but just wasn't happy with the quality, the stock stuff just seems to fit and work better, my friend at GM found the parts at various dealerships that still had them on the shelf after all these years!
In addition he has hood shocks all polished and custom for the 3rd gen setup all adjustable, I had to have these as well and inbound from FLA
The biggest thing is he is a serious fisherman, note the poles, so the polish takes a back seat, but no worries, I am a paitent guy!
Cheers! _________________

Wow Rich you are going to town with the bling there. You are going to have to have sunglasses for folks when you open the hood
That car is really coming into it's own. Was a nice example of an original but now taken several steps further.
Will have to go cruise if the sun ever pokes out again (or at least it isn't raining).

Looks as if he likes to smoke as much as he likes to fish.
I will agree that the aftermarket brackets are total crap. Check out this one I pulled out of my old Z28 when I bought it:

Hey Thanks MIke, truly appreciated man!
I just like to keep adding to the show side and theme, I don't mind the polish and up keep! Yea dude as soon as it's dry lets go!
Arron I do recall you mentioning nightmares at this years Cows, so I took your advice and got stock parts that hold up just fine and had them polished!
Dude that bracket took a serious dump man!
LOL yea he smokes them up! _________________
