So I have Insomnia from my seizure medication.
I have been staying up reading your threads,77nomad......BB427.

Laughing my A$$ off and checking your work you have done.

BB427....Back in 1974, i had an older friend who pulled up in his new Purple 70 Z/28 with an L-88 hood and full fender flares...

From that day forward,i was a second Gen man.

I got to the part of your post where you were going to sell...i am glad you have decided not to....Hug your wife for me..

Very few long time owners left.. If i wasn't in the shop now getting the crazy resto, i would be thinking of selling....It got to the point ,i was calling my car , a bucket of bolts......Hurts to even say it.

NO MORE BB427. I am reborn.

Love your stripes,flares,engine detail, frickin dealer installed 427.......

Your wife was right...is right....and probably ,always will be right....

.Tore that thing off when i painted her in 1985.

Thanks Bucketlist!
Yes, it was #43 Lime Green, with a black vinyl top. Hated it from the first time I saw it, so it became black with black top a couple years later. Then in the 80's it went all white and the top came off.

It looks like Placer Gold. Anyhow I like it. I like Sublime Green too.
