Comments

This Z24 is one of the original JCO cars from many years ago that I picked up as a bare rust free shell this year and put together using parts which came mostly from the Z24Door
I have been in the JCO for over 10 years now and in the J-Body scene for longer than that. Car has been built by myself and is of my own creations.
