80L48vette

Low miles 9xxx perfect shape even has the leather jacket that could be had back in the days.
Red ext tan int.
What to look for is my main question from you experts before I possible buy it.
Price is a little high 37,000 Canadian IMO as compared to a nice 96 lt4 collectors edition for 20 grand Canadian I found. I know 2 different beasts but just need your opinion.
Any help would be great.
Thanks
Andy

Based on the prices in today's market, the price seems a bit high. A very similar car (higher miles) just crossed the block at BJ in Vegas last week and sold for $20,000. It's not good to let these cars sit, they really need to be driven. The main area of concern is the injectors, if stock they will have issues with the new ethanol fuel. Also vacuum leaks can cause issues, thing drying out etc. A total fluid/filter change will be in order and hopefully the gas tank has not developed any rust.

Gas tanks were not plastic back then at least on the ZR1 ?

Nope, the exterior tank is steel, but come to think of it, they may have a plastic liner, not positive.

My first thoughts would be -

Injectors: 9k+ miles would make be suspicious of the injectors. Fuel Injector Connection has stainless IIRC. The injectors will run ≈ US $800 (check with Jon at FIC for details).

Tires: Certainly, if they are the originals, they need to be replaced, unless you intend to trailer the car to NCRS competition showings.

(SPT) Vacuum circuit: The Secondary Port Throttle (SPT) network may requires new plastic lines and rubber connections. The check valves should be checked for function while you have the plenum off. Jerry's Gaskets carries just about anything else you car might need to refurbish the entire network.

Aside from the LT5 stuff (mentioned), the car is a C4, and sitting that long and not driven has typical 21 year old car stuff, e.g., fluids, filters, ball joints, lubing the chassis and checking the rubber bushings/suspension stuff, battery, wiper blades, etc.

But, once the checklist is complete, you'll have a BEAST on your hands and you won't be sorry for choosing the ZR-1!
