Re: Finally Bought A "ZR1"
In the code "P8Y094", what do the numbers stand for?
P = Prototype? 8 = Year of manufacture Y = ?????? 094 = engineering tracking number? Does anyone have a difinitive answer? Thanks

094 was the sequence number. so it would have been the 94th Y P number assigned. 8 was the "Model Year" your car was build during the 87 manufacture year. There are differeing opinions on exactly what the P stnads for. I will let others discuss that, but there appears to be at least 4 different types of tracking numbers: P numbers like P8Y094 S numbers like S9YKH1 PR numbers like 9PR110 (#074)and 9PR450 (#003) and 1 numbers like: 19Y0123 1989 ZR-1 #081 Snake Skinner 19Y133 1989 ZR-1 #016 Yellow Geneva show car 19Y170 1989 ZR-1 France Press Tour car Last edited by 1989ZR1#74; 03-20-2010 at 10:45 AM. |

Re: Finally Bought A "ZR1"
Well, after six months of a car deal, I'm finally bringing the 88 home to begin work. Geoff and I made the deal and I have been waiting for a 53 to sell so I could pay for this car. The 53 sold this week and I'll be bringing the 88 home next weekend.
It will go straight to the frame shop for the windshield frame repair as well as the rear bodywork install. Once complete, I will begin preparing the rest of the car for paint, while Geoff builds the PhaseII LT5. A special thanks to Tyler for setting me up in this deal and especially for Geoff's patience. I never dreamed this would take six months. Worth the wait!

Re: Finally Bought A "ZR1"
Wow! That S.O.B is trashed. But a proto type car is worth the massive effort thats going to have to go into bringing it back from the dead. Is that a younger Corey Henderson with less gray hair in the background?

Re: Finally Bought A "ZR1"
I've always liked a challenge. LOL. Actually, the structure is in great shape. It'll be easier than it looks.
