Hello Michel, and welcome to the forum.

Hi guys

Got some news about the ZR1, I was planning buy.......

I didn't do it because I found out that the car was totaled in 2001. It had been hit by a truck in the rear. And the car had been assembled out of two ZR1's. Although the car looked very well, I hesitated to much, and thinking about driving such a car? What problems would I face in the future? Since the car was repaired, it has hardly ever seen the road again. And the license was suspended since. And unfortunately I was too late warning other people....The ZR1 has been sold to someone else.

But thank you anyway for your help, I'll try carfax for my other Vettes. It's always nice to know the history of them. Maybe it's better to buy a ZR1 in the US, I've seen some on this ZR1 site.....Maybe someone could recommend me one!!! For a fair price off course. I hope to drive a ZR1 once. Btw are there also people here driving 1970/1971 ZR1's??

See you

Greetings Michel

Hi Michel-

As you now know, this forum is limited in the help it can offer. The big problem is no-one actually reads the original posts. As seen here most people think you already bought the car and are welcoming you to the forum, I appologise for them. Carfax is worthless, you cannot ever go by that. It was very wise of you to hold off until you found the answers, and to your credit you avoided a potential mess.

There are many of these cars for sale very cheap & with much lower miles, of course shipping them overseas is another expense. You did very well, just keep an eye open, I'm sure much better will come along...
