No it was just a quick wash.

I am truly outstanded at how nice this car is, a true credit to the owner who did all the donkey work making her look this good.
This will be the last ZT i own and will be a keeper for as long as possible, it really is that good and i've owned 7 various ZT's now.

From looking around no one seems to touch these anymore... might have to talk to an old engine builder i know.
Watch this space.
I think given the weight of the ZT a turbo or supercharger would be better overall then a NASP screamer!

You have a lovely example there Tom, and I think you'll have everyones attention if you start tweaking the 190 lump succesfully

That's a good looking ride Tom, a ZT-T in XPG is always a winner...... But then I would say that!
