Between seeing your pics and parking next to a day 2 '68 at a local show yesterday, I really got the itch to have another 4 spd 1st gen.

So is your vinyl top original still? And car has been painted twice?

Yes, original vinyl top. The car has the original lacquer paint job, the one the original owner did after he put the cowl hood on where the stripes were removed, and I did one when I bought it. 3 paint jobs, but the door and trunk jambs are all original.

Also along the way, I painted the rockers black, and put the white stripes on it.

It was a place I had bought part from, and a place I even test drove an 80 Z28 when I was 18, it happened to be Maryann Scuncio's car that she was driving, the daughter of the owner.

Anyway, I went in, a 20 something year old kid, asked for him, and told him I had something outside to show him. Lets just say he was quite surprised, and loved that I had put the car back on the street. This was the first of two meetings I had with him.

The second time I met him is when he came to my house to verify that my car was indeed a real Z28 that he took in trade at Scuncio and then immediately purchased it from them,... and to also confirm that is was one of his former drag cars.
This is a couple of pictures of him sitting in the drivers seat of my car, ...I also took him for a little hell ride in it just to get his blood flowing a bit...lol. I'll take a picture of the official Bob Johnson Racing Enterprises certification certificate I have at home.
This was probably 20 to 25 years ago and unfortunately from what I have heard, Bob is in very poor health nowadays.

Here's Bob's certificate of authenticity for my Camaro.
