Early 1990 Window sticker/COPO Car
I am curious about this 1990 I picked up over the winter. It is the 788th car off the line, and has the ordering dealer and delivery recipient as the Chevrolet Central Office (COPO). Is there something unique about this car I should know? All my other vettes, including ZR1's have always had a dealership delivery. What was the vin of the first production 1990 ZR1? This car must have been one of the earlier units.

It was probably a GM Executive use car like my 96!

Not too early. I believe #72 might be the earliest and I think one of the members here owns it.

My #2441 has two window stickers. One showing corporate office in warren Mich. delivery from the NCM and a second coming with the owners kit showing a dealer in California. I've been told a number of cars went to Corp ex. To drive a few months and then on to a dealer.

#792 here, we're practically twins.
Probably same day and same people doing the assembly. Red '90's are the fastest. Everybody knows that. 'Crabs

Re: Early 1990 Window sticker/COPO Car
Well, I was hoping it was a rare million dollar prototype! No such luck I appreciate the input. I think I am going to put this car up for sale. I don't have time to change the injectors and replace whatever else it needs from sitting. It will be an easy project car for somebody with more time than me.
