Hayseed Buys A Brand New 1990 ZR-1 - ZR-1 Net Registry Forums

As embarrassing as this pic is, it was a fun time in my life. I had just checked out as a B737 Capt at the airline and had a little extra coin in my pocket. I went to Capitol Chevrolet in Nashville and bought a brand new ZR-1 in my favorite color. It had 21 miles on the odometer.

At the time, I owned a 1967 L-71 Corvette coupe that was originally purchased by the country music entertainer, Porter Waggoner. In the pic, the distinguished gentleman on the left, Jimmy Allen, was the general manager of the dealership. In 1967, he was the salesman that sold Porter the 1967 435. The tobacco chewing goofball on the right is me.

After the pic was taken, I jumped in the Corvette and drove to Southport, NC. A lot of water under the bridge since then...
