Hi i just got a 68 stingray and the paint is horrible on it. its peeling and bubbling and cracking, its just bad. whats a good product to remove the paint without hurting the fiberglass body?
The owner before me flared the wheel wells out, i want to put some wide wheels on the rear but cant find any that look stockish or rallye with wide widths. where can i get wheels with a stock look in wider widths?
What is the best exhaust system to put on this badboy, it has a 354 in it and i want it to have a mean growl.
The 354 in it now is not stock because the owner before blew the stock 454, what are some aftermarket parts i can put on it performance wise to beef the power up?
Thanks all in advance and pardon my NOOB ?'s thanks again

I'd talk to a good body shop about the apint. Generally you sand it down and re-primer it. But if you have poor quality flares you might want to replace the fenders.

Not too sure about the paint. I would take it to a good body shop to have them evaluate the condition. For the exhaust I would go with Borla for a nice mean agressive growl. What sort of aftermarket parts did you want? Simple bolt ons or engine internals? or?? The exhaust will free up some power. I would suggest headers, high flow cats, and a cat back system since you want it to sound mean anyway.
