Talking The best pic of your 280!!

Hey guys, I wanted to post this thread to show off what I think is the best pic of my car. I would like to see what all of you think is the best pic of your car, so let's see them.

I think WildmaN is the only person here that saw my car before I sold it. My car domain site was a few months behind. (I'm going to go cry myself to sleep now) Maybe I'll post up a pic tonight

And the person that bought the car got enough goodies to quadruple what they paid for it (and that doesn't include the value of the car itself).

I used to have that pic of the blue Z in front of the iced over waterfall. I thought that rocked!! Sweet car...

BTW, Skully, your paint job rules! And THX, your color wierded me out at first, but I've grown to like it a lot, and wouldn't change it. It's different, and that's what it's all about!!

And then there's Rod's ride. What can be said, except "SWEET"!!

I like Wildman's Z, mainly for the fact that he's laboured (for you canadians) so hard over it! I saw the labor first hand, and helped in a small way. That's the sh*t!!

This was my first set of 17's I had on the car, but the car got stolen and stripped and they didn't make that wheel anymore... that's how I wound up with the 10 spokes you like...

Never mounted??? I'd like to talk w/ you after you install it... I had to cut half moon shaped circles on the underside of the hatch edge, to align the mounting holes.
