Re: For those of you not on the ZR-1 Net list
I would like to add my thank you to JVD for sharing your memoirs!
 Speaking as a relatively new ZR-1 owner these insights are great. Thank You JVD!

Re: For those of you not on the ZR-1 Net list
Next question - does anybody know what happened to Larry's 1990, the first one he owned?
I think Larry had posted the VIN number for his 90 in one of his newsletters. There was one of those used car sales put on by several dealers in Colorado Springs in about '95 or '96. I noticed a black '90 ZR-1 with paint that looked really bad. So I walked up and looked at the VIN - and yep, that was it. The car was in rough shape for only being 5 or 6 years old. It had 70,000 or 80,000 miles on it and asking price was $17K from what I remember. I doubt anyone went to the trouble to bring it back. This is my first post by the way (I sold my '91 in 2001 and just bought another - a '94) and will post an intro separately - don't mean to highjack the thread. |

You mean to say that this group of nice, calm, non-opinionated gentlemen engaged in name calling, finger-pointing (& not index either), ego bashing and anything else they could until Dave would have to step in and kick said gentlemen off for awhile. The good old days when the ZR-1 Saloon was the calm down place complete with cheerleaders, thongs and purple beer. On another note, I met Larry only once at the 1999 Gathering where I joined the Registry and two weeks later Larry shut down the Registry. So, unfortunately, my opinion was not too favorable. Thanks Jim for reminding us of past times.
