New owner in Minnesota
Hi all,
Just got my new Red 1991 #1139 shipped from Ohio to Minnesota and can't wait to drive it. I'm sure I will be looking for advice from the members here to help me on my journey. I have had several Corvettes in the past but never a ZR-1 and it has been about 18 years since the last one but who is counting. I see for the poll that there are 9 other members in Minnesota. I was wondering which part of the state or metro area the they reside in? As far as the car goes it has a few minor issues that I can see on the surface. Good Bright Red with Black interior 43,000 miles 95 style polished wheels Both tops Original windshield with minor delamination Runs strong and clutch is good Bad Radio comes on and tuner works but no sound Belt moldings and rear hatch gasket (not bad but will replace) Need to paint the hood and front bumper (chips and scratches) Couple of oil drips from about drivers middle overnight Some wear in carpet under the clutch pedal I have no previous owner info on the car as I bought it as a repo from a major lending institution. If anyone has some info on the car it would sure help. Sorry about the long post but thank you in advance for everything. Jon |

Re: New owner in Minnesota
VIN# 1G1YZ23JXM5801139
From what I have found is that a dealer in Cuyahoga Falls, OH tried to sell it at one of our auctions last June with 38,000 miles and then it was repo'ed in the Pittsburgh area in January by Wells Fargo and brought to our auction in Columbus to be sold. I purchased it 2 weeks ago and just got it in yesterday. |

Re: New owner in Minnesota
Welcome. Its good to see another member in MN. I've got a 92 that I've had for about 7 years. Good luck with the repairs and paint.
