That 90 may be an incredible deal, I considered it, but I just can't bring myself to like the 90 body style enough to own one. Plus the guy really doesn't know how to build a decent listing, not many pics, not high res, etc. The 91 ZR-1 (92 LT1) body style just looks much smoother to me, personally the 90 looks best in black (to hide the black body line), and I really don't want another black car. BTW, there's now a black 90 on Ebay starting at $6,100, but it's a project (seized motor, with a spare LT5 shortblock that comes with the car).

Will be interesting to see what that 90 goes for....actually both of them. I like the 90 looks better. I like the front end compared to the 91+

place is owned by a guy named charlie. he's nice enough and seems to run the place to fund his high end car addiction.
Any idea how much they wanted for the black 90 Z?

This car sold at Manheim here 2/2/2017 for 12k + fees, so the dealer is backing up.

Should have updated you guys. Yes, worked out a deal on a different car, with a CF member. Flying out to get it tomorrow, will have updates soon. Found one that has recently been "restored" that gives me a better starting point. The Atlanta car is a good deal, but for what I was going to put into it, I was better off on the other car I found that's already "done" (other than performance mods).

good to know, best to be happy with your purchase from the start rather than regretful. glad you were able to work within the forum as well
congrats

Ok, so finally ready to fess up. I ended up buying the Steel Blue 91 that David Johnson just did a restoration on. Go here for details and pics:
