I bought my old 93 Z28 back, now it needs some TLC

Michael, if you're going to order a reproduction headliner, I have one of those ABS ones that they sell, brand new, that I've decided I'm not going to use. I'll let it go for a decent price if you want to take it off my hands.

sending you a pm now

Primed and prepped the bezels











Some may wonder why I put the effort into these parts but they say you can cut corners. I figured now was the time to same some cash and fix them since it is part of my "skills" not that I'm skilled in much.

I'm going to use my stock mounting plate/triangles for visors as my visor delete plates. Picked up a brand new headliner from Jim (birdie2000). Thanks again Jim!!

[mcalus]

Started putting the headliner in yesterday. I can't find the rectangle "guides" for the seatbelts where it goes through the headliner. And I can't line up the triangles for the visors for crap. Argggg. Something so simple is so difficult.

Got the headliner in! I had a light sitting on my seat so the pics would show up. It's a much darker color. I still need to find the plastic guides that butt up to the headliner by the seatbelts. No clue where they are.

Anyone have some random interior parts lying around? Need the 2 plastic headliner/seatbelt pieces. 1 hvac knob(has to have the yellow strip damn 93's)

I'm not sure what I'll do to it today. Maybe try to fix some interior rattles. Maybe if I'm feeling real ambitious I'll jack it up and go over the exhaust and fix some small leaks.

Looks good Michael, you still thinking of selling this?

Yes/no.

I NEED to get out of the parent house. But that a whole different story. I have cash saved up but selling the camaro would put me in a really really comfortable situation money wise.

As I was saying to Jim, I really need to sell it to someone that doesn't know about fbodys. To get what I would really like.

But in the meantime, putting more money to make it worth no more lol.

I am wondering if I should reinstall the fogs or not. I kinda like the looks of it now but undecided.

Best pic I have on my computer of front without fogs.


Also, any tips on removing the wiper arms? I took off the nuts but they wont budge. I have heard not to use a screwdriver because ill end up with a busted windshield, and I don't want that. I soaked the bolts/studs in some pb but it did nothing. I want to get them off to repaint them.

I have been looking into possibly recovering the seats. I am 99% sure I'll go with lethal interiors. I'll probably go with black and gray two tone and possibly embroider the headrest area with "Z28".

Basically the first one but the 93-97 style. $400 for the fronts

I need to look up his prices a little better. I'm in need of a full set for the 98 (if I don't get Andy's) and figure out what do to with the 02 seats for my IROC.

Didn't someone on the site just get his interior from this guy? I think he said it took quite some time to get it to his door

I think he is a she. Lol
I believe this guy said his was $621? Fronts and rears.

She said it takes about 1 week to make them and only works on one customer at a time but is currently only 1 week out.




EDIT: my birthday is in one week. I told my brother I wanted an SS spoiler hope I get it or he isn't getting shit for Christmas lol.

I hear you there! I may actually put a sign on mine this spring too after i finish fixing everything, but I wont be parting with it for a blue light special!

Interior work looks awesome, surprised you didnt do a t-top conversion

Whoops, my bad. Actual leather for $600-700 ish? Seems cheap

Hawks sells complete covers (vinyl leatherette) for $500
