Nice find, and great job on joining the Registry! The first ZR-1 I ever drove was the same model year and color scheme as yours. Hooked me!

Cool Re: New ZR-1 owner... just introducing myself>>>

Hello Michael, I'm glad to see you made it over, and welcome to the forum.

Your Z looks very and it is nice to see such a well maintained specimen going to an owner who will continue to take care of it.

Well..what a nice welcome I did just receive the book the 'The Heart of the Beast'..digesting that now. I also started my major detailing of the car and due to the condition (as stated in my first post) I am just 'fine tuning' BUT finding all sort of interesting stuff:
-I found the build sheet on the gas tank but was so fragile only was able to retrieve part of it..lots of build info etc and even though it is a partial (about 1/3) and it will be laminated. Then there is the build sheet in the front cross member which will stay in place.
-This is a hoot..really...about 2 am last night my mind bolted and began a "duh"... my C6 has no jack/no spare tire/no lug wrench etc and the ZR-1 has that and I did not check to see if they were there at time of purchase..so first thing this morning I go searching and what a find...the spare tire/jack/flat tire bag were all there and never opened or touched after 17 years..when I opend the bag for the flat tire bag the smell of vinyl came out as if new>>


Now to the spare tire.. totally untouched and when I cleaned up a bit this is what came out>>> 17 KOH

King of the Hill spare!
I have worked on the interior...found the original hand brake 'how to use' sticker and the dealers lincense plate (under the drivers seat) so here is an update interior shot>>>


And I am now also focusing on the engine bay...that is the next week's effort and again starting off with a great condition ZR-1


I am one that documents everything I do to a car..if you guys feel that you are bored etc let me know and I will cut back...

Talking Re: New ZR-1 owner... just introducing myself>>>

Keep us updated. We really like pictures and I am enjoying yours. As far as the build sheet, I also saw mine and tried to remove it, but figured it was worth more attached. You can get a build sheet from the Corvette Museum if you'd like a whole one. Looking really nice.

Remember, no washing the motor, and almost anything will stain it.

Congrats, look like a nice clean ride.

I used to be out in your neck of the woods. I went to Fork Union and has a few friends that lived in Vienna and Oakton.
