Hey Guys

Been lurking for a while. Finally pulled the trigger on a ZR-1. One of only Nineteen 1990 Blue cars, arrived from the midwest late last week.

Been busy cleaning and taking care of a few small repairs. I'm planning on using it as my DD during the week when weather permits (weekend I'm pretty much stuck with the SUV hauling the family around)

I've found the info here a huge help and will attempt to make a meagre contribution to the knowledge base as I gain epertise with the beast.

Apologies in advande for any newbie/dumb questions I may ask.

Nice looking Z, I've always liked that color blue. How many miles are on it and what are the last 4 digits of the VIN (tells you what number ZR-1 it is)?

Post up more pics, if you can.

Congratulations on your beautiful Quasar Blue ZR-1. There were only 15 QB's with Black interior made in 1990.

Welcome to the Brotherhood!

Both blue and purple are tied for the fastest. Great to have you aboard.

Nice looking car! I love the '90s in blue, they really go well with the black beltline.
