Morrison #99 Car

[Blue Flame Restorations]

Let me start out by saying that I am working a deal on a special ZR1. For that reason alone, I am considering selling my 1990 World Challenge Tommy Morrison #99 car. The #99 car was a third team car for Morrison.

John Heinricy was driving this car when it collided with a Porsche. This ended it's career.

I purchased this car with the intent of restoring it and really like it. The car has been repaired and is ready for paint work. I have purchased a 1990 six speed coupe that actually is a pretty decent car. I drove it all last year. The donor car has everything needed to make the Morrison car come to life once again. This is a piece of GM Corvette racing history and will be awesome in it's Mobil 1 livery. I have patterns for all of the decals used on the car's Mobil 1 sponsorhip as well.

I also have a Challenge VET1806 short block, a set of Dymags for the Morrison car as well as four 315 track tires.

I am gauging interest at the moment and will accept offers > $20k for the whole package.

If interested, please email me for information.

Thanks

Is this what happens when I do not talk to you for 1 day??

KEEP IT, You can have both, you wife does not care, keep it, that is my only chance to buy it in a few years.

[Blue Flame Restorations]

Relax my TN buddy. It'll be ok.

[phrogs]

So what in your eyes would be needed to finish this project?

do you have all the historical photos of what the car looked like in race trim?

what was your plan to replace the decals?

Very interesting project

and what is the value of one of these restored any ideas?

[Blue Flame Restorations]

The donor car has nearly everything to put the car back on the road. Still needs a race seat and fire supression system.

I have a few good pics of the car from when raced.

I have the correct decals ready for duplication by a local vendor. Also have a fully restored aet of Dymags for the car as well.

Projected value finished - around $50k.

Well, I may have a deal on the Morrison car. If not, no biggie. I'd really like to restore it and enjoy some loud exhaust and a few hot laps anyway.

It'll be nice to meet Morrison and John Heinricy at BG in May so I can learn more about this car.

[phrogs]

I would love to restore this car but Id have to unload one of my cars first.

good luck on the sale.

Do you have a ZR1 to trade???:mrgreen:

I do have a ZR-1 but I think it will be my daily driver when I start school here soon.

I don't know if I should drive my ferrari while Im in school haha

and my 68 corvette is in no condition to drive so I need a daily car haha

[Blue Flame Restorations]

It looks like I'll be keeping it anyway. It's a big part of GM Development/Morrison racing history. It's sister cars, #97 & #98 have been valued at $50k+, so I have no problem keeping it for the future.

When it's done, it will be so awesome in it's Morrison livery.

I was just trying to drum up some more $$ for a ZR1.

[WB9MCW]

Good decision -- Plenty of time to save and find a bargain ZR-1 in this economy.

I do not see a fast climb out of this predicament we are in now.

ZR-1 deals will be around for quite some time in future.

Yea. I really do like it. I bought it right and want to drive it someday. That Mobil1 livery is one of the best, IMO.

NOTE: If you look at your 91 ZR1 owner's packet VHS tape, you'll see this car on the track running for a brief moment. Cool!

Remember, I am your only son :):)

[Blue Flame Restorations]

Sad but true.....

[Blue Flame Restorations]

Here we go again.....I found a Quazar Blue 90. I'll sell the Morrison car for $18.5k for the package of the Morrison car and the donor car. If the ZR1 sells in the interim, my car will no longer be for sale at this price.

[vettebrett]

Is 1 ZR-1 not enough???:-({|=:mrgreen:

[Blue Flame Restorations]

Greed Is Good

[gbrtng]

Does anybody know what happened to the white L98 car they ran for 6 hours?

[vettebrett]

Oh, I DO, I DO.

So Blue do I tell the story or wait till after May??

I am thinking waiting would be better.

[ZZZZZR1]

Oh, I DO, I DO.

Do tell... :happy1:

[vettebrett]

I will let Blue be the voice of reason on this one. Normally when I make decisions like this, it will come back to bit me in the ***. If he thinks it is ok to tell the story, I will. I bow to the old guy with more wisdom than I have on many different topics.

[Blue Flame Restorations]

It's in good hands and will be seen again one day, when the time is right.

is the blue 90 near detroit?

[Blue Flame Restorations]

is the blue 90 near detroit?

I believe it's in Dearborn.

[vettebrett]

Is the same one as last month, at a used car dealer?

[Blue Flame Restorations]

Nope. It's on the CF For Sale section. "ZR1Jim".

[Blue Flame Restorations]

Anyone want a two car package? Own a piece of GM racing history AND the car in the 1991 VHS tape given to new ZR1 owners! Look at your tape for a glimpse of the 99 car in action!!

Make an offer, just never know what could happen!

[A1990]

The Quasar blue Z is a sweet car!

[Blue Flame Restorations]

The Quasar blue Z is a sweet car!

It sold before I could sell the Morrison car.

[Blue Flame Restorations]

Ok. Here's a way to own a piece of history cheap.

Morrison #99 car
89 Challenge Series short block from Bruce Jenner's car
4 dymags
$9500.00 (no donor car)

Build the car your way with your own drivetrain.

I can deliver it to BG next month.

Is this THE 24 hour car?

Rick =)

[Blue Flame Restorations]

Is this THE 24 hour car?

Rick =)


No. The 24 hr record car is on display at the NCM. The white L98 car is MIA.

My car was the first 1990 #99 car. It is listed in the Registry of Corvette Race Cas. This is the sister car to the #97 and #98 Mobil1 cars.

[Blue Flame Restorations]

Open for serious offers for the race car or both cars.

[TommyL]

Why not finish it then sell it ????

[Blue Flame Restorations]

Too many projects and customer cars to do already. If it doesn't sell, I'll finish the car and keep it. The Morrison cars and the Mobil1 livery are hard to beat.

I always enjoy reading that article from time to time. It certainly was the end of a great era in ZR-1 Corvette racing.

:cheers:

[Blue Flame Restorations]

Weekend bump

Reasonable offer

[vettebrett]

Make your mind up??:p:p

[Blue Flame Restorations]

If it sells before I paint it, it's gone. Otherwise, I'll keep it.

[Blue Flame Restorations]

Open to offers, guys. Too many other cars to purchase and projects going on.

Own a piece of GM racing history!!

If you are seriously interested, just give me a PM or call 765-623-6154.

[Blue Flame Restorations]

Car now on Ebay.

[Blue Flame Restorations]

SOLD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:(

[LGAFF]

In good hands?

[Blue Flame Restorations]

It's in very good hands and I have first rights to buy it back if ever available. Hated to sell it but times are tough and business is slow.

Anyone want a nicely restored 53??? $250k and I'll deliver it. :mrgreen:


STILL HAVE MY 11'' DYMAGS, GUYS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
