Reduced!

Wasn’t sure I’d be doing this, but life changes…in a good way! I’m posting my 1990 ZR-1 for sale, asking $17,000 for a very clean, original, well-maintained car that you can drive across this country tomorrow, take to an autocross and know it’s been set up right, take your significant other out to dinner and get the attention of the valet, or go for a beautiful mountain drive with the leaves changing. The one thing you CAN’T do is leave it in the garage and stare at it. This car was meant to be driven and enjoyed, currently with about 64k miles but I do drive it!

The story of this car is well documented in my Daily Driver thread, but I’ll cover the highlights here.

Daily Driving a ZR-1

I bought it in October 2013 from the second owner. He only owned it for a few months, and was good friends with the original owner. In fact this was the car he had learned to drive in, and it was his dream to own it someday. Unfortunately it didn’t work out for him, but it has been a wonderful car for me. When I got it, it had been sitting in a warehouse for 13 years and because of that, it had some needs. It was super-clean and original, but cars don’t take kindly to sitting for a long time. It took me a few months to debug everything, and since then it has been an absolute rock. EVERYTHING works exactly like it should. Here’s a partial list of the things I’ve done.

Water pump
Serpentine belt
Tensioner rebuilt by Haibeck
Throttle body rebuilt by Haibeck
All new intake and throttle body gaskets from Jerry’s Gaskets
Fuel and air filters
All coolant hoses
Idle control valve
Plugs, wires, coil packs
O2 sensors
Clutch master
Clutch slave
Brake Fluid is fresh ATE
Akebono brake pads with about 3000 miles on them
VATS security override
Reconditioned HVAC head unit
Replaced driver’s window lift frame/motor
New door switches
4-wheel precision alignment, settings halfway between street and off-road aggressive

I drive it everywhere, not afraid of leaving it at the airport, or going on long road trips. I believe in driving a car and maintaining it properly, and keeping it clean and sharp for the local shows too. I just returned from a trip to South Carolina where it performed beautifully, and I’ll take it to Florida soon if someone doesn’t buy it. Lots more pictures here in the link below, and a few attached here.
