1994 ZR-1 Heart of the Beast Cover Car - ZR-1 Net Registry Forums

Selling THE cover car from the Heart of the beast book.

1994 red/beige ZR-1 #375

The car was originally titled to GM and used as the 1995 long lead press car. It was pulled from stock and converted to 1995 specs, which included switching out the gill panels, seats, transmission, wiper arms, seat belts etc. The car was photographed and tested in several magazines and other GM sponsored events. It was eventually converted back to 1994 specs by reinstalling the removed parts (have copies of GM work orders) and sold through Kerbeck Corvettes in December 1995. Car comes with full documentation and includes the (now spare) 1995 torch red gill panels. Car is in excellent condition, always garaged and maintenance has been kept up all its life.

Car currently has ~29,200 miles, I've owned it for nearly 3 years and have put about 2000 miles on it. It is a great car and lots of fun to take to car shows. Just need to thin my herd with a pending retirement/move. Can provide additional pictures on request.

I know scammers won't listen, but I'll add the obligatory no scammers/don't need help selling it statement here.
