Just took delivery of a 95 Yellow ZR-1.... - ZR-1 Net Registry Forums

Roadster · 12-10-2016

Christmas came early for me, as we took delivery today of a 95 Yellow ZR-1. Finally after all the searching (Yellow was always my first choice), it is here.
Paint is excellent, the entire vehicle is Mint!!! Engine looks like its never been touched. Interior is also a 10+++.
Since there are hardly any miles on the Z, I intend to keep it that way. Very little use, if at all. And the original tires held up perfectly. I may even bring it out to Carlisle next year. Something I'll really have to give some thought!!!
Here are a few pics, just happy to show everyone the new addition to the family.

That is super cool. Where did you buy it, or did you have to commission it?

Don't forget to check the secondaries for proper operation. Look at those Goodyear GS-Cs!

Danbury Mint, very similar to the Franklin Mint Vehicles from past years. I think these were made back in '95 or '96. They don't show up too often, and the price difference can vary depending on the seller..
I just couldn't pass this one up. May have to go for a drive this weekend

, but then again, just might leave it where its at!!!

Yes, the GS-C's are still brand new.....not a hint of "dry rot"...

Will check out secondary operation for sure.....of course when the engine reaches operating temps......

That is very cool. I'd love one. I look for '90 stuff all the time. Not much out there. Toy companies are so dumb.

I agree. When I had my red 90 I wondered the same. Biggest production number and color.....nada.
