It won't be an LS1 which yes is a royal PITA. Got lucky and got a totaled 97 Z28 with 31k miles on it for $550. So LT1 and T56 are going in Originally Posted by Silver Streak

Are you ever going to use the LS1 that you bought with your body from Spaz? Or would you rather let it rot then go to a good home?

Tap, Howdy, PPG Triple Black is about as black as black gets! (makes most other blacks look grey) Make sure to get a good heavy clear on it!
When you get done with the car are you gonna take some pics of it with the proud owner?

What color black would you guys go with? A straight up gloss black or would you go for one of the new pearl blacks out there? I'm starting to really LOVE LOVE LOVE the black sapphire pearl on the BMWs, not sure how I'd like it on a third gen though.
I don't have any new pics. I just got a black leather interior out of a 4th gen for her and I'm looking for a new aero wing. I have black GTA wheels, black outs for the tail lights and the car is getting a new cowl hood cause the cheap ass one that currently is on the car doesn't fit well and it's chewing up the fiberglass on the edges......
Help me pick a black I will like PLEASE!!!!
Here is the car when I first got it for reference

I wasn't looking for the blackest black. I was looking for a nice shine and not a bland black. It is a good idea though. I will think about that cause a glossy black is always pretty Originally Posted by Slushdawg

I will take pics when my BF finishes it and drives it down the track for me too ........ Since I probably really don't own the car anyway, it will never get this motor and trans swap and won't get painted either

I really like the way it looks ALL black. Black wheels, black outs, black paint and hot pink engine
