Welcome to our garage! You have one sweet looking ZR-1

but then I'm partial to the black ones anyway.

Carly Simon's Anticipation comes to mind. I'm sure you are going to have a wonderful relationship with your new toy! Congratulations on the pick up!

Oh yea, about the PERMAGRIN....you know that there is no cure, right? Just don't swallow your ears!


Tom

Congrats!

You will be very excited on the delivery!!

Make sure that the car is exactly as it should be before you "sign off" on the paperwork.

Damage during shipping does occur sometimes and you need to inspect the car really carefully. It happens less with a quality organization.

Naturally, the driver will want to get on his/her way. I always give him a tip of $50 and then go over the car with a fine toothed comb before I sign off on the paperwork.

Also I would have a "jumper pack" with you. I had my car show up once and the battery had died. It was at a tuner for a long time and then took a week to get to me. Naturally the battery was weak to begin with. Being you bought the car from someone else, the battery might not be the best and not all drivers are equipped with battery packs, jumper cables etc except most will have it.

Default The "Z" has arrived....

The Z has arrived safe and sound.......the car was the last one on the trailer and was all the way forward on the top tier.....I couldn't really see it from my street level location when he lowered the door.....but when I heard that LT5 fire up from inside the trailer for the first time....MAN!!....my face just lit up!.....the growl just sounded awesome!.......and then when he backed it out onto the ramp and I got my first glimpse....well..lets just say....I now know what you guys have been talking about. These cars are SICK!......why did I wait so long..haha

Now to get her registered, insured etc and go for a real ride.....

Awesome pic Kevin, but I agree, we really need more of them. I love seeing such a nice car just as it came back in the day...and yes that means with the GSC's. ...But that's just me

Traction control? Didn't the good Lord put that in our right foot? Thats right the newer ones had supplemental traction control to help us from burning up our tires. The permagrin has started, it will only get bigger! Enjoy a fine machine!

Looks Great. I'm partial to black myself. Looks like you have some awesome weather and will be able to go for a drive right away. When I got mine delivered it was Mid February. I had to wait for weeks for the ice and snow to melt off. That was pure torture.
