1990 ZR-1 #2456 Original Components
#2456 is obviously just a single data point and we know there were many running changes throughout the 6 year run and even during a particular model year.
Since I found this car in such an original state, I thought I would post shots of components that NCRS geeks, and others, might find interesting. This vehicle is on Marc Haibeck's arrival list and he estimates 8 weeks so, I have a lot of cleaning and documenting to do prior to Marc's work. Since it has not been started in 31 years, I removed the center spoiler so a winch could be used. |

Re: 1990 ZR-1 #2456 Original Components
I find it amazing how often cars are left then found in this condition.
The ones that I have fostered / adopted were at least covered before being stashed away. While I share your excitement in finding and resurrecting it, I also have equally strong feelings about those who let it sit that way without even a cover for 30 years. Look forward to seeing the end result. One suggestion. After sitting so long covered with either a cover or cover of dust, try yo keep it out of direct sunlight. I have had half a dozen where the windshields looked fine when first cleaned, but when sitting in the sunnier spots within the showroom, delam quickly followed. The side closest to the windows / sunlight experienced the most rapid onset. Do not think it was heat related, as some of the cars were in public storage that certainly became hot in the summer, but no delam present until the bright light was added. Again, photos of your progress likely would be of interest to many. Enjoy the pursuit! Marty |

It is in a climate controlled garage and out of the sun. It's on the list to go to Haibeck but, otherwise, it won't leave the house. Good suggestions👍 Mark |

The VIN stamping should be on the drivers side front of the glass top frame.
