NCRS Flight Judging in TN
 
Preparing for a SE Chapter Meet, next weekend, in Pigeon Forge. I'm very involved with NCRS, having joined in 1988. That was two years before I purchased my brand new 1990 ZR-1. Currently, I'm the director of the NCRS Advanced Judging Seminars which are held at all Regionals as well as the National Convention.
1990 #2456 will be getting judged for the first time. Having sat in the basement all winter, it's time for the car to get out and get in the sunshine. With that being said, I've always considered sun's rays on the solar windshield to be like garlic to a vampire so, I try to keep it protected.
I'll post some pics and commentary along the way...

This vehicle has extremely low miles but does get started each month (at least, that's the goal) and ran for 45 minutes. All the ancillary systems are exercised and a log is kept...

A lift comes in handy when you're 68 years old😁
Just some last minute cleaning...mostly cobwebs removal...

Mark, I love seeing your cars, thanks for sharing with us. #2456 is truly special. I enjoyed seeing it when I visited the museum in August. I was thrilled to tell my family the story of how you found it, and I showed them the barn find pictures while we ate at the Stingray Grille.

Your yellow windshield cover reminds me of my windshield :-D Probably about the same effect! (And interestingly enough, I don't think mine sat outside much before I got it).

Mark,

Outstanding ZR-1!!!

Your periodic tests exercise more things in a day than mine has had exercised in years, as I would expect from a life long pilot and enthusiast!

Enjoy your toys!!!

:cheers:
Marty

What a beautiful car! I'm sure it will do extremely well at the show. Safe travels.
