My ZR1 before:

My ZR1 after

My ZR1 now

I am getting the radiator & thermostat replaced when car is apart. I was wondering if there was anything I should replace now as it is easy to get done. Repairs started at $8500 & so fa is up to $13,000, insured with Grundy Classic Ins so far they seem good to deal with. Thanks

So sorry to see it. Keep your chin up.

Sorry about the damage, what a shame!

Replace your coolant hoses and maybe the fan. (Corvette recycling has it for $100)

How many miles on your Z?

I was following the wife to a resturant , she missed the turn & she turned left to go through the parking lot. I followed her but this light pole jumped out in front of me & BANG. I couldn't see the pole as it was hidden by the windshield post, basically I wasn't paying attention & it bit me. My buddy saw it at the last second & yelled but it was too late, so I blame him LOL There are 40,00 mi on the car. Get it fixed & move on.

Fast moving light pole. It happens.
Good luck on the quick fix.

rail looks tweaked alittle, so that means it got in the coolers and radiator,that starts to add up quick with RR time and parts cost, will also need to paint into the doors for blend; lights, hood costs, bumper, etc....

Those jayrunning trees and lightpoles should be banned.

I can't TEXT, and watch for THEM, with a drink in my hand

Now if I put more starch in the fenders 'fore I leave the house...
