Re: How many ZR-1's are left?
Even if it is well over 5000 left, that still less than 6K and a little over 1K gone. That's pretty significant, especially if there's a higher ratio of lower produced,later year models gone (they were 405 hp right).

Could very well be. I know some are just broken and will sit until found decades from now as "garage finds".

Re: How many ZR-1's are left?
I did this quickly so feel free to check my math......
Average auto frequency is 12.5 Ex Glass claims; 12.5 claims per 100 vehicles Consider specialty cars are driven less the frequency then drops to 4.125, maybe lower..... of the 4.125 ZR-1s per 100 15.5% of those 4.125 per 100 would be totalled this is .64 per 100 ZR-1s per year Given 22 years and not considering you would need a graduated scale based upon production per year, which I did not do..... 6922 /100=69.22 69.22 x.64=44.30 44.30 x22 = 974 total losses

Re: How many ZR-1's are left?
So then 900-ish for predicted losses, but not including 20 years worth of attrition due to high mileage, racing, and a few examples here and there of a car parted out since they are just getting to be worth more dead (for parts) than alive.

Re: How many ZR-1's are left?
I would say that # is on the high side if anything.....
