Added 90 Z and Rebuilt the wrecked 91 Z
Been away for awhile so I thought I'd update you on the theft recovered 1991 I bought hit in the rear, and show off the 1990 I just purchased. The 1990 has 80K miles, magnetic red w/camel interior. One owner car with all documents. Problem is the guy passed away and the car sat for several years. It runs like sh!t. I am going to have to install injectors at a minimum. Its pretty clear this car has never had a passenger; unlike the drivers seat that needs some love. The good thing is every single thing works, and the factory windshield still looks good. I'll likely sell this car as I am not a big fan of the 1990 body.
The 1991 speaks for itself. Paint came out great and interior is like new. I am still trying to find the rear left corner molding though. Does anybody have one? Somewhere along the line the car was changed from red/red to yellow/black. They went to great lengths to make it look like it came that way from the factory. There is no sign of red paint anywhere, and they used all GM parts to do the interior change over. I didn't find out until I got a copy of the window sticker from the Corvette Museum.
