Took a bunch of photos, so here's a teaser.

Check the engine in this one. Look kinda familiar?

Great pix--I remember that car I think from seeing it in the museum. Looks like a Phase I ZR-1 motor from Lotus with a much smaller displacement. Interesting that it was mounted transversely whereas the new C8 mounts its engine longitudinally. Must have had an interesting transaxle.--Bob

I remember seeing that car at Holler Chevrolet in Winter Park. Fl about 1995.
As i had just brought my 1990 ZR-1 in April 1994. Did not get any pictures.
I had not got my cell phone at that time.

The "Indy" corvette. IMHO, this design ( and the Cerv III ) should be the future corvette ZORA.

looks like the museum let a couple other cars out for the weekend too.
