’89 ZR-1 Prototype Photos.
I visited Nelson Automotive in Marysville, OH today to look to look at some of the ZR-1’s they have for sale.
While there I noticed a wide-body C4 with ’89 wheels, got a little closer to see that it had the digital dash. It is one of “4 or 5 unmolested” ’89 prototypes to be in existence. The gentlemen I was talking to is friends with a Mr. Ungurean who has about 50 Corvette’s in his collection. I think this is one he was buying (not 100% sure on that). He told me that the going price for this car is in the $200,000 to $250,000 range. They have a few other ’Zs with double digit miles on them, they are literally time capsules and are flawless. One cool thing I noticed on one of the ’90 Z’s was the windshield cutout for the radar detector/garage door opener is larger than the later models. There was a ’94 Z beside it for comparison. Link to a few of the Z’s at the dealer I was able to view. http://www.automobilemag.com/5_47_16...ille_ohio.html B17 Crew Last edited by B17 Crew; 03-21-2013 at 03:25 PM. |

Wish there was more light coming in the showroom to showoff the color, it is cool.

Tyler,
You are more than welcome to use whatever images you wish. It was a happy accident coming across this ’89 today. Here are a few more pictures that I took of the Z today. I can only post 5 images per post. B17 Crew |

Few more shots:
Thank you for the heads up on the Detroit/Indianapolis event. I unfortunately won’t be in those areas around that time, but it’s nice to see these landmark Corvettes being preserved and displayed. B17 Crew |
