I visited Nelson Automotive in Marysville, OH today to look to look at some of the ZR-1’s they have for sale.

While there I noticed a wide-body C4 with ’89 wheels, got a little closer to see that it had the digital dash. It is one of “4 or 5 unmolested” ’89 prototypes to be in existence.

The gentlemen I was talking to is friends with a Mr. Ungurean who has about 50 Corvette’s in his collection. I think this is one he was buying (not 100% sure on that). He told me that the going price for this car is in the $200,000 to $250,000 range. They have a few other ’Zs with double digit miles on them, they are literally time capsules and are flawless. One cool thing I noticed on one of the ’90 Z’s was the windshield cutout for the radar detector/garage door opener is larger than the later models. There was a ’94 Z beside it for comparison.

Tyler,

You are more than welcome to use whatever images you wish. It was a happy accident coming across this ’89 today.

Here are a few more pictures that I took of the Z today. I can only post 5 images per post.

Thank you for the heads up on the Detroit/Indianapolis event. I unfortunately won’t be in those areas around that time, but it’s nice to see these landmark Corvettes being preserved and displayed.
