Some Blacked out Z's was created by z1kzonly
Old scanned pictures.
I always did the blacked out theme.
The 73 Z1 was all Black 1995
The LTD was done in 1991 for a customer, black disc in front wheel for the drags.
Sorry for quailty, but finally got a scanner. Just learning how to use it.
Copying old pics.

Not generally a big fan of blacked out bikes as I'm a chrome guy..."If it won't go, chrome it!" but those are some good looking examples. Have seen a few that were too dark but have seen a dragbike completely black. I mean, I think the guy built it then sprayed it black while it was assembled... Looked good though and damn near impossible to see at night trying to find him while racing. Both of these bikes have just enough shime to break them up some and get you to take a second look. Good job!

You know...there is something about basic black that is timelessly appealing...and you do know what they say....once black, never back :)
