Maybe I'm in the wrong section... Or not...

But anyone in Tennessee around the Brentwood/Franklin/Nolensville area?

I'm about 20 minutes out of Nashville.

If so we should put together like a small meet or just hangout or something, I hardly see LTX cars that aren't bone stock Buick's and Cadillac's.

Thanks everybody!

Nice man!

Are you talking about the Slow Society meets?

Not sure if they still do those but I went to one for the last EAST10Drift event.

But it's in my signature lol.

95 z28 with I'm pretty sure a factory 94 engine, manual 6, few mods here and there, spent most my time fixing the previous owners mistakes, but now the thing runs like a top.

Now onto the body work..

Paint is just awful, trying to get all the dents out and take it down to MACO and get a $300 paint job lol all I can afford

No its not the slow society ones although I have been to some of those this one is on Clinton highway. There's a lot of high powered cars there. Its not a set car meet everyone just knows to go there. And lol I didn't think about looking at the sig but cool and yea a quick macco paint job is better than nothing.

Yeah I know what you mean.

But I just called Maaco and they do an enamel type of paint job with no clear coat?

Seems to look decent in pictures, guy said if you take care of it and clean it often it will last 3-5 years?

Have any thoughts on that? lol

But yeah he said $350 if I prep the car, which I will..

But got any tips on how to get the existing clearcoat up without an air grinder?

Id say go for it if that's whats in your budget and on the clear coat issue Im not to sure on that I've never really messed around with that type of issue other than using plasti dip a time or 2 lol
