Trip to NCM - ZR-1 Net Registry Forums

-=Jeff=- · 03-29-2014

I just got back from a quick trip to the NCM with my son

Fun time and the best part was both of us enjoying the Plant tour..

IF I could sell my Z and afford a C7 I would, in a heartbeat, something I never have said regarding the C5 or C6, I think th C7 is just an impressive car, the more I see it the more I like it..

Alex (my son) and I also picked out what color combos we like.. too bad a new one is out of my reach

anyway here is a link to all the pictures and a couple random ones posted:

The picture does this color absolutely NO justice (Night Race Blue), with red interior

Theyre really starting to grow on me.Ill take a black-red non Z51 please.I can deal with the taillights its the goofy spoiler that bugs me.

Neat trip! From your pics it is hard to imagine the PPG car ever being restored. Man that thing is messed up!
And I like the C7 too. Can't deal with the red interior though. Kinda funny that I never really paid much attention to Corvettes in general until I got this one... Different story now!

I remember my last face to face with Doug and his yellow beast. We met up at a service station while filling up. Then later followed up with a conversation out front of the museum. He was intense on his opinions about the car but tended to keep it about the car and not personal if he disagreed with you. RIP Doug.

Saw this one in the wild yesterday while driving the majestic Columbia River Gorge. Still looks too much like an Aztec influenced body to me.
