For some time now, a few members have been poking at me :poke: to post some pics of the ZiLLA. That wasn't my intention today, but it worked out. The day started out with a puddle under the right rear tire on the SLEeper though, which goes hand-in-hand with the pedal fade at stoplights the last couple weeks. Luckily, I had a couple new rear brake cylinders laying around:

Nothing like a home-made pneumatic brake bleeder:

A couple pair shots:

THE FOLLOWING PICTURES ARE CLEVERLY SHOT TO INTENTIONALLY OMIT THE FLAWS ON THESE CARS

The SLEeper in her aging glory:

And by request, a couple shots of the old B I T C H herself:

I assume I'm off the hook again until someone demands pictures of the custom interior, and I have to go out and clean the stinking INSIDE of the car?

I got vents from a Trans Am GTA, cut them in, painted the hood......what else? Here's the topic:

viewtopic.php?f=14&t=123



For those that don't know, ZiLLA's interior features one-off custom two-tone monogrammed door panels and visors. They were made by an old member years ago, the car was sold to another member, and when it was totalled, the items were sent to me. It's a striking combination with the custom audio and gauges. I'll post new pics in a couple weeks.


I'm surprised nobody has commented on the relatively large non-performane supercharger pulley, and the fact that I'm not running my extra custom idler mount. :P

Looks good Bill. When you do the interior pics, make sure Dex is driving and Lexi is along for the ride.

No. Most of it though. What's there is from 2 years ago. Last year, I used the water-based clearcoat that washes off. Bug and Tar shield.

You should see the UNDER side of the car. Wait.....you have. It's still really thick in spots under there. All the way back to the gas tank.

I figured the threat of cracking transmission casings was a good enough reason to back it down, so I didn't say anything.

It's actually surprisingly quick with the 2.5, but the only reason it's on there is due to the wet weather this time of year. I probably won't run the 2.0" this year, but may very likely go to the 2.2" pretty soon. I'll slip the extra idler in at that time. Then I'll be testing front transmission mount #8 extensively. Pretty sure I'm flexing the subframe now though.

Well, I guess that's a lot easier and quicker than undercoating :booty2:
