Yep, a very rare, competition-ready (almost) big block LS6. Worth a mint, I'm sure...

I have a friend in Texas with one. There was A ZR2 on ebay 2 years ago but the reserve was never meet. Also D&M Corvette in Illinois had one for sale. http://dmcorvette.com

I was standing by the ZR2 when Mackay was there with his "entorage" discussing the car....you could tell he thought it was a very special piece.

I was at Bloomington Gold this year when they sold a 1971 ZR-2 for a cool $550,000. If I remember correctly, the car was orange and a coupe.

you're right on the ontario orange mike, but it was a roadster! it was the optional hard top that threw you.
