Great video,I too think people are going to start looking at the C4s in a more positive light,just yesterday I saw a medium metallic brown 88 and followed the guy so I could see the car more. If I had the space I’d love to have another 84,got a soft spot for 84s.

I had 2 84's as my first corvettes, loved them. Then I had a 92, then 90zr1, then 16z06 and now back to the 92zr1😁. Thanks for watching and please subscribe, there are more zr1 videos to come!

Congrats and looking forward to more adventures and videos.

1st thing I guess 'to do' - rear wheels aren't correctly orientated to the car on the carrier. Be sure you correct that when doing the tires!! If you're doing the a-molds and retaining the LTPWS I'd make sure you orientate the bands to the correct wheels.

Already on it 😉

Congrats on the 'new' ZR-1! The spit and polish you did on it made it look awesome... even in the garage.

Totally agree that the ZR-1 community needs many more excellent quality videos posted.

I prefer the look of A-molds on these machines, but not crazy about the extra bling of chrome. Possibly coat those chrome factory A-molds with a silver satin metallic https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=19&v=AFYX_5cS1go plasti-dip?

Of course keep those original tires as they would be valuable to someone doing an NCRS show.

Again, congrats!

Very Nice, grats on the 92

[DRM500RUBYZR-1]

What a pair!


Nice garage full of Corvettes!


Congrats on the newest addition!

Regarding the A-molds - I hate 'chrome' A-molds. Have you actually confirmed by casting information on the back-sides that they're GM's that have been chromed?

I've seen no snapshots closely enough to confirm this. A quick glance at the chromed side for the JWL in the 2d window clock-wise from the valve stem might be a considered a confirmation. If the JWL isn't visible then you for sure check the back-sides.

I really like the painted saw-blades - machined finish not so much

Ya they're not chrome, they are polished aluminum.

Ya they're not chrome, they are polished aluminum.

Polished I could tolerate on a '91+ car.

This is perhaps my wheel choices, a '90 car with 'black A-molds', '90 with OE wheels, '91 & '92 OE saw-blades and anything '93 or newer A-molds preferring painted argent/silver.

Chrome never!!

Make sure to keep all those original parts, including the tires and spark plugs.

Oh I am. I don't know if I'll ever sell it or if anyone will ever want them but I'll have them😁

My 90 was blk with polished Amolds, was a great combo!

Great video- I like the walk around and the commentary.

I now feel guilty about not checking my plugs recently.

Can't wait to see what you do with it!
My Z showed up on the truck with 2 flat tires..... It was a mess.

I remember a guy at a Corvette show told me his car had the original air in it's tires.

[PostmanZ]

Great video my man....Beautiful Polo Green Z! Looking forward to more videos and walk arounds. What else do you have planned for it? Any exhaust or suspension upgrades in the near future?

This one wasn't that bad it just needed some overdue love

Exhaust is probably first and foremost. I've been looking into suspension options,not sure if people are just removing the entire adjustable system or if they have something that works with it, either way she needs to drop an inch or two.

That's exactly what I was gonna say, give that baby a little drop and some performance mods and you'll be grinning ear to ear....even more than you are now :cheers:

If you decide to get rid of the adjustable shock system, I would definitely be in the market for the parts! A couple of mine are shot.

Wait wait wait, are you saying ProCharger is working on something for the LT5????

No...but....well.....it has come up. I will keep you informed as to the progress if I go that route 😁

Thanks! My z06 was 690whp/710wtq, it was insane! Loved it but it was time to move on. I know this is hard to believe maybe but I was more excited finding this zr1 than when I got the c7z. I think because it's more "special", you can't just walk into Chevy and grab a 19kmile c4zr1.

Add to the fact that only 6900 were built and the engine was basically hand crafted to which there was nothing like it at the time.

No doubt the C7 Z06 is a monster and will walk on just about anything on the road you encounter.....but with damn near every cookie cutter car on the road today pushing tons of horsepower, today's cars just don't feel "special" if you get what I'm saying. There's just something special and nostalgic about "super cars" from the 80's and 90's that cars today just can't capture...and they probably never will again. For me it's about quality over quantity.

It's the same reason I'd rather have a Porsche 930, 964 or 993 over a brand new 911 turbo. Of course a new 911 turbo would absolutely destroy any 911 made from the 80's and 90's, but a new 911 turbo will never reach that special place with me :wink:

EXACTLY

[billschroeder5842]

The newer C7s are like a drunk sorority girl in a sweat shirt full of party rap music, while a ZR1 is the sultry brunette milf in lingerie with a smooth glass of merlot gazing seductively at you.

Sure the evening ends up with the same result, but both are wildly different experiences.
