Default The end?

I did the almost unthinkable last week.
After 11 1/2 years of ownership I sold my ZR-1.
Sold to a registry member who lost his ZR-1 to a fire.
Going to pay off my C6 and put an LS3 in my Ruby or
trade the C6 in for a C7.
Going to keep my membership here to stay in touch with my ZR-1 friends plus I never know what I might buy tomorrow!

We'll see I bet you will miss the ZR-1 and have to get another!!!

Good Luck in any adventure you embark on.

You know it went to a good home and at least it remains in Wazoo land.

I talked to Ed and surprised of you selling your 94 #077.
I won't be surprised to hear of you getting another ZR-1 down the road. I've done it and so have a few others.
We'll be sure to take good care of your old #077.

hard to believe, John ... but I'll bet you catch the Z bug down the road and get another. Definitely keep in touch, esp. with more info on the LS3 ... that sounds very interesting.

I know how you feel John. I am hoping I sell my 95 to a Registry member and certainly plan to stay involved if I do. Too many years, friends and memories not to stay involved with or without a ZR-1. --Bob

Glad to hear you're sticking around John. I will plan on seeing you at BG next year.
