Clint, I think it was you that saw his garage. Heard he has 9 ZR's, what are they? I know about his '91 w/ a 415, I believe it's got Callaway ground effects. Is it the red one on South Georgia Corvettes website?
Anyway, If I could one day have a ZR collection here's what I go with.
'90 red/red-classic
'90 red/red- (I think red int.) Fast Lane
Racing's 431" think it's gone hi 8's.
'93 40th anniv(ruby red/ruby red) rare and
sweet.
'94 white/black, SW's 415". 701hp, nice
color combo too.
'94/'95 comp yellow/black- ooh
'94/'95 admiral blue/blue- very nice
'94 comp yellow/red- only 1 made, saw it in
person, pretty cool
'94 comp yellow/black (I think- saw it
behind glass) Dennis' LPE 368" TT
I guess I could hang on to my lowly '91 blk/blk LPE 368" since it's my first ZR. That makes an even nine. There's lots of other nice ones out there, that would be heaven though.

That Callaway ZR-1 on South Georgia Corvette's website is George Bryce's(of Star Racing)former car. It's now somewhere in Wisconsin.
Lowly 368" ZR-1? Oh,please! Here,let me cry some crocodile tears for you,George. [img]http]//www.corvetteforum.cc/ubb/biggrin.gif[/img]
I've seen your car before and it certainly is no slouch.

Probably the only ZR-1 I would sell or trade my car for,would be a 93 40th Anniversary. I would love to build a modified 40th ZR-1.

I would really like a 415" stroker,Wayne. They just seem to do everything so well. Aaron Scott at South Georgia Corvettes quoted me $24K to bump my LT5's displacement up to that size. Only one problem;I don't have $24K right now.
