I really hope the buyer of this car in question knows what they will be getting into.

first of all , never ever pay 6 figures for a car with any excuses.
if that car has been for sale for so long, then the owner has already certainly multiple times been asked and challenged regarding all the excuses , but continues to market it as a real deal. ask him why it has not sold yet and ask him to describe why his potential buyers have not bought it. he knows why.

for those not old enough to have been around or of dreaming/buying age "back in the day", you could do almost anything you wanted on ordering...read COPO and dealers did install many things not available thru chevy or even a "normal" dealer installed option.

I do not see any excuses with the car.
Also it has been established there is no DNA test to determine if a car is real or faked. Car speaks for itself. I see no excuses with this car.

They found a radio delete plate for that proteam ZR1, but they forgot to take the off the radio shielding?
The rear deck does not have an antennae, but I'd be very curious to look at it from the underside. And also check around for the various radio condensers.

ZR1's did not have an option for a radio, and came with radio delete plate - which this car has - and did not have the shielding, and condensors that were part of the radio option.
One BIG thing the seller missed was that ZR1 also did not have the UA6 alarm option. I wonder what the sellers excuse for this one is? I'm going to send him a note, and ask how his car came with an option that was not available on ZR1's.
