Default Re: The History Saga of my 94 #0009 continues...

Some interesting observations.......

It appears that we have stumbled across "ENGINEERING TEST ZR-1's", which just adds more history and info for a great machine.

On my Build Sheet at the top (which is cutoff in the pic) is the date....
9/10/93 and time...10:01 24 which could be the start of the "build", or the end, as the bottom RH corner says, "OK TO SHIP".
So if that is the case and the engineering department received the 94 shortly after, then it must have been tested and used for an extensive period of time. As the date on the cover of the PROM from Tim was dated 3.30.94
And as mentioned before, Tim did say the vehicles were used on a daily basis, as if they were their own cars. And if parts were suspect, they were changed out.

So the questions arise....
How long were the test cars in operation for the engineering group?
How many miles were put on each vehicle?
What parts, if any were replaced and were future changes made on the line?
Do any records exist for the "Test ZR-1's"?
