Well,I'm in the process of buying another ZR-1(with 415") and sadly must sell my 90 ZR-1 to a new home. My car with full description will be in the Forum & ZR1Net classifieds soon. If sincerely interested,give me a shout.

Hello Clint


Tell us a little more about what you're buying such as what year and so on. I'm curious to know.


Thanks

USAZR1

I'm trying buy a friend's 1990 ZR-1,Comp Yellow/Black w/95 bodywork & interior,Jeal 415",Brembos frt & rr,Guldstrand 1G suspension w/coilovers,Fluidyne radiator,etc,etc. It's a very serious car. The owner is wanting to buy a vintage F-86 warbird.

xsmph

Clint, Is that Toby's Car? I have not seen it in person, but I know is got some serious power... HAve you heard the motor iddle? Do you have any idea as to how much power is he making?
I know a 415 is a 415, but you got a BAD BOY!!!!, aren't you attached to it?
Do you know if that 415 can be sprayed??

Wasn’t that the old Pineapple Express that went out to Florida Stan Schwartz owned in the past? That was a very serious machine!

USAZR1

No,it's not the old Pineapple Express. This car is in Virginia at the moment. The owner and I have been best friends for 15 years and I helped him get the car. He gave me first shot if the car ever went up for sale. I've got 90 days to sell mine but if I don't have any serious offers in 30 days,I'll step aside and let someone else have a shot. It won't break my heart if my car doesn't sell,though.

I knew you had a soft spot for the 415!

Best of luck on selling your car and making it happen.

David :cheers:

Clint,
I'm interested. Mines currently listed for sale on the forum.
I attended quite a few shows in Wichita Falls a couple of years back.(Best engine Oct. 1999)
Lets see what happens with mine.

Regards,
Frank

That's what makes it kinda tough for me,Julio. I purchased my ZR-1 on my 44th birthday and have put a huge amount of time & money getting it the way I want. The market being soft now like it is,is another factor,too.
Yes,if I get the 415" car,I'll definitely install some spray.

USAZR1

David,you have email. :yesnod:

USAZR1

I was the Head Judge at our WCCA show so I remember your car,Frank. That car is awesome. I'm sure it will be tough for you to let go of it,too.

Gidday Clint. Wayne here from oz.Any chance of some pics of the ZR1 your contemplating buying, or would that be asking too much?
P.S. I hope you can sell your car pal!
I'm sure this car will look every bit as good if not better than a rubyred version, eh Clint! :D
BOL & Rgds Wayne

USAZR1

Howdy,Wayne. Good to hear from you. Sorry but I don't have any photos of the car but even if I did,I'm unable to post photos to the Forum,anymore. :confused:

My friend and I had a long talk last night. Both cars are off the market now.
I really love my car and it can probably run(on the juice) with most of the 415's out there. To those of you that inquired about it,sorry but I just can't part with it at this time. Hope you find what you're looking for.

RubyZR1

Hello Clint;I bet that was a tough decision to make Pal!
Hopefully it will all work out in the end.
Rgds Wayne

USAZR1

Actually,it was a very easy decision,Wayne. Everyone wants to buy a ZR-1 for next to nothing these days and I just wasn't willing to give my car away.
When the old ZR-1 Registry had 2,000+members,they controlled over half the ZR-1's out there. I have no doubt that the LT5 Registry will eventually grow that large or larger. When it does,we will able to control the market for ZR-1's to a much larger extent. When that happens,no more cut rate pricing and values will reflect more honest numbers.

W i l l

I really don't think anyone is going to dictate the selling price of ZR-1s unless they own enough of them to control the supply. A large group of affiliated people who own ZR-1 Corvettes will not accomplish that task unless everyone agrees to sell their ZR-1 at no less than X dollars. Good luck having that happen. The simple laws of economics will prevail.

ZR1

Supply and demand? What's that?

I ran into LOTS of people when shopping for a car that thought the sun rose and set on their car. They are still trying to sell them but not to me. Controlling a market? If you're the only game in town, maybe. As my old daddy, the former gate keeper for the Dolly Llama, once said to me when I was selling my 300SL, it's only worth what someone is willing to pay.

USAZR1

We shall see,grasshopper. :yesnod:
