Re: Refinishing the engine - Would it take away NCRS points?

why can't we all get along ??

There really is room in "ZR1 World" for both groups.

I love drag racing and SCCA class racing. But I am also a card carrying NCRS member (since 1993), and have...

Re: Original Black oil filter for a 1990 ZR1

Don't remind me. I had to go through that with my 67. The first time threw I lost 85 points for paint being cc/bc.

Re: Original Black oil filter for a 1990 ZR1

Ed,

They will not change the standard. I and many others have waged this argument with Roy Sinor over laquer paint. Lacquer paint is illegal in 22 states, and is an environmental hazard. Yet ,...

Re: VIN SCAM protect your ZR-1

I am in the insurance business, and a large collector car insurer has had multiple...

Re: Refinishing the engine - Would it take away NCRS points?

You mentioned that you had a cut shroud. That would be a deduction for condition. In addition, any car with more than about 5,000 miles on it, will naturally have some detrioration of components....

Re: POLL: For how many has LBA180?

Never got near 180. We don't have those kind of roads in NJ. However, I did get my 93' 40th ZR1 up to 144 on the interstate going through WV on our way to Bowling Green in 1999.

That road in WV...

Re: Refinishing the engine - Would it take away NCRS points?

Rare is a relative term. Most people would agree that a 1967 Big Block is a relatively rare car. There were over 9,600 1967 BB Corvettes built.

Only part numbers that are easy to get to are...

Re: Refinishing the engine - Would it take away NCRS points?

I don't disagree with anything either of you have said. I can guarantee that people on this forum, and people like Marc Haibeck could make huge improvements in the ZR1. But thats not what NCRS is all...

Re: Refinishing the engine - Would it take away NCRS points?

Well said,

The bottomline is this. No matter what any of us think about NCRS, or "NCRS type" shows, the value of all of your zr1 's in the future will be determined by condition and originality....

Re: Refinishing the engine - Would it take away NCRS points?

Ed is right on with his comments.

I have been an NCRS judge for 2 years now, and a member for 15 years. It is a very worthwhile and informative organization, and plays a huge part in the history...

I had 2 previous zr1 s in...
