I have been enamored with the C4 for a very long time, and finally acquired a 93 with an automatic transmission last year. The interior of the car was a disaster, but mechanically it was mostly sound, although it is apparent it spent most of its life outdoors. I have been in the process of putting her back together and after about a year I think I’m almost there. My only issue with the car was it being an automatic, not that it’s a bad thing, but I really wanted a manual, so last month I bought a 93 ZR1. Needless to say it is an incredible machine, and a real pleasure to drive.

I am new to this forum but I can see there is a tremendous amount of knowledge out there, and I look forward to reading all of your posts and chiming in when I have something to offer.

Cheers

I’m currently on the road and won’t be home for a few days, so I only have a few pictures. As I mentioned the LT1 was a mess, but it is looking much better.
