George, #074 was bright red 81U. It was in Randy Leffingwell's Corvette - Fifty Years. The official 50th annaversary book. Pages 306 & 307 if you have it

This is the actual #74 in a picture taken by Randy Leffingwell for the May 26th 1989 Los Angeles Times review of the car.

Morning Update:

Spent some time on the front air dam. It is pretty messed up. I took it off yesterday. I heated and straightend it. Turns out its missing the center air deflector. Will have to source one of those. While I was crawling around I found a few tiny bits of overspray from a previous red paint job. Looks like this ZR-1 was 81U Bright red at one point. Not sure when or why it was but it was.

Last night I crawled up under the transmission and took this:

I also confirmed 12volts to the ECM.

Well I just heard from Edgard Solis the Automotive departement Head at Sheridan Tech Center...

"Yes, this Auto body collision and refinishing school painted it."

So much for my GM Styling exercise. Well now a Dark Red Metallic paint job is in order.
