Nice write up on Michael Beal?s 1991 ZR-1 Roadster!

Thanks. Much better pic - can now see that they are the original "gills", the seats also appear original, and there is no air intake opening where the license plate should be. I'm puzzled over the timeline on some of the work. It would appear that the second owner, an Arkansas doctor, made some additions.

I wholeheartedly agree Frank! ...all these models that you see that have their pictures taken with cars, well...she looked to be the real deal. A real ZR-1 enthusiast!

Michael, glad I could help out!

Again - many thanks for your direction. I now have the magazine and article. I'm now beginning to wonder if Elizabeth Bartschi might not be the new wife and not the daughter of Dr. Bartschi. I do know that the car transferred to Dr. Gary Bodiford of Arkansas in 1995. The Vette magazine blurb seems to confirm the fact the Metalcrafters did the conversion - but, I still have been unable to get any response from Bartschi, Bodiford or Metalcrafters regarding the vehicle.

Hello my name is Christian Bartschi. I believe I can help answer some questions about this car. My uncle is Larry Bartschi. Does Michael Beal still own this and does anyone know how to reach him?

Mike sold the car a few years ago. Not a clue where it went?

Dang anyway to hunt it down. I have a bunch of pics of the car and more info.
