ZR2 concept.
I understand there was a C4 concept of the ZR2, but I'm thinking more along the lines of the original ZR2 concept spawning from the 1970 ZR1.
-
If they actually had made the original concept of the ZR2, what model year would it have been? Would it have been a 1971 or even '72?
-
How tacky would it be to make a ZR2 concept clone out of a different year C3? Put in a modern LS7 engine, aluminum radiator, all upgraded suspension, and a unique paint scheme.
-
I just find it interesting the ZR1 got far less attention than the L88.

Since you aren't using the right year car, then it can never be a clone, so just build the car how you want it and enjoy.
You want the high performance 454? Build one. Or use a 502. Or a 427. whatever. Or the modern LS7. Just don't worry about the "clone" aspect since it isn't a clone.

I remember it vaguely. It was a ZR2, which looked just like the ZR1 except it had wider tires, a bulge in the hood, and a few other trim changes.
I don't even recall what year it would have debuted or what motor it had but it was supposed to be a big performance change over the ZR1.
