Default Just bought 2 C4s!

I have alwys been on the lookout to buy a vette to compliment my 1991 white L98 coupe. Well I got lucky, I found not one but 2! Not only that but they are ZR-1s.

But the best part is they only cost me $1.00.

Well the image wouldn't load. Click here for pic.

Thanks arkvette. You're right the upkeep will be cool. I haven't got an insurance quote yet. I am having trouble reading the VIN's. I am not sure about letting the kids drive them. Well, maybe when I'm not driving them.

You should get a great multi-car discount on your insurance....... he**
maybe you will get a fleet rate. If the were mine I would definately wait for insurance before my boys drove with them......they are rough on toys. Maybe you know the type, both would break an anvil in a sandbox.

Thanks guys. Well actually, as Coupe89 pointed out, garage space won't be a problem. So there goes my excuse to get a bigger garage or a lift. Man, one step forward, two steps back.

Right now I reading all of the posts so I can get with it on the mods. I'm thinking wings, body kits, air bags.....

The quality and angle of your pics fails to offer real proof that in fact they are both ZR1's.

I had planned to allow this amusing thread to just die down but since BS was called I have to offer what proof I have. The previous owner didn't provide a title or paperwork. Heck, without the VIN's I can't run a carfax. So now here it is, the only pics I have as proof. That and the descritption embossed in the bottom of the cars. Here's some links to the pics. You be the judge.
