Thanks everyone for the comments, I appreciate the kind words and will try to answer your questions:
carguy - yes, the old corvette style had a hand in influencing how this car was planned. Also, the 327 in it is from a '67 vette (although the only part still 'vette' on it is the block :classic: ) so the scoop made sense to me.
CZCar - I'll post more shots of the scoop soon and no I didn't build it, it's from a '69 comet.
dero - this car hauls arse. There are many faster Z's than mine, I'm happy with the 400 or so hp I've got and have a 100 shot left to install for added kicks.
v12horse - I think that's what the mirrors are called(made of spun aluminum), I got them from victoria british. My rims are 15x8 all the way around, no spacers, with yoko avs 205/60/15 front and 225/60/15 rear.
Thanks again and good luck with you Z's everyone.
