OK, In the nasty Z28 site it says Cast & Q-jet. I seem to have an "early " '73 car. It has "bowed headliner," & some of the switches for heat/air are '72 also. I've had it for 30 years, original engine is long gone,(Now getting the 383), but I'm trying to make it "LOOK" as original as possible. Thanks

Who sells the correct Gray mag wheel paint for the 5 spoke wheels ? Is that "cast Iron"paint pretty close ? Mine have been semi gloss black forever, Going to have them "blasted" before the re-paint. Thanks

My best friend bought one off the lot, dark red with white stripes. Had a bad sqeak from what seemed the back glass when the car hit unevened pavement and flexed. His came stock with a Q-jet and cast iron. I still have the original heads.
