Default Frenchian's Z06 arrives at Katech

I'm sorry Tommy, but your Z06 got to see something its probably never seen before....snow!




But she is safe and sound inside along with Andy's and Painrace's and my other little surprise below.


New LS7 to the rescue





One big happy family:





Good thing the second hoist is getting put in this week.

Wow! You guys have quite a collection of C6 Z06's as of late.

If I wasn't selling my C5 Z06 out of necessity I would already have a C6 Z06 on a truck headed your way.

Maybe one day I will be on top again.

So for now I can live vicariously through you guys to help me keep my dream alive.

Okay, What's the Story with the SS??..............

Sure looks like you guys are getting your fair share of the private mod business.

Thanks Jason, I can now sleep at night.

I think I'm going to change my license plate to read "I8PISTON"

PS: That's not 'grease' on the driver's seat. It's special chevy dealership leather conditioner.

Also... What's the plan for the 'Ron Fellows' Z? Don't tell me it's yours?!?

The trailblazer SS is getting a 427, built trans, exhaust and a lot of cosmetic upgrades. I'll post pics when it is done.

The Ron Fellows Z is getting Stage 1 + cosmetic upgrades. It is not mine and it is for sale.


I love your license plate idea.

Hey Rich,

Yeah, I swapped out the headlights with a set of GM black ones and I got the rear spoiler from West Coast Corvette. I have another one that I painted matte black. I didn't like the color so I bought a second one and painted it silver.

So, I have a spare if you're intereted.

Tommy, there goes your resale value, but then again, you could always claim it's never been driven in the rain.

hi Frenchican,

Is it difficult to change the headlights?
I like the black headlights to but my local dealer advised me to not do it because it was sealed and he saw al kind of problems(you know dealers)
Can you advise me?

thanks in advance
