Kissimmee ncrs 2017

[edram454]

Just got back from Mecum auctions and the NCRS Kissimmee show in Lakeland. I met and talked with Dave McClennan and his new wife. He was very kind and spoke a bit about zr1's. He was quite surprised that I recently sold mine and asked if I would sell my children too..(a joke) but told him I dont have any but I would for the right car. He said he was having his worked on by Mark Haibeck who is doing a 510 package on his 1995 z. You can tell he is very fond of the zr-1 and is easy to talk too especially when the zr-1 is the topic. I saw 3 zr-1's at the mecum auction a 1991, 1995 and I believe a 1992. all sold but not for any great prices. I saw a Boyd Coddington full custom c1500 pickup with a fully polished lt5 in the engine bay. It was called zr1 truck. even with the famous builder building it and that lt5 it was a no sale at 18k. Market is down everywhere and affects most cars except for porsches, ferraris and slow 70's trans ams and camaros. At the NCRS show there was a guy who had a 7 horsepower 1957 Corvette fancy go cart. it had a nice painted body and a red vinyl interior with little white wall tires. To show you how whacked things are he was getting offers in the 15k range,, that could buy a nice full size zr1. pathetic.
