I visited ncm in 1999 and remember a whole section with about ten unusual zr 1's and I believe some 89's, one convertiable, cut a way zr 1 and five lt 5 development motors. Since then I was determined to own a z. Took until a year ago that I could afford one

From my CF post:

#003 Red/Red Press car GM owns in Heritage Center

#014 Crushed car now restored
#040 ZR-12 Falconer V12 at Museum (or was at anyway) GM owns
#045 24 Hour record car at NCM GM Owns

Tyler the Heritage car is 003 the Red/Red media car that was at a museum in Ill until about 10 years ago. #003 is the red ZR-1 shown in almost all early press releases:

I would not be surprised if there are more 89s out there. I firmly believe the 3 pre 89s currently known are the only ones out there. The earliest example the Heritage Museum has is 89 s/n 2 and it does have one of the narrow body cars. The NCM does not have any.

Looks like my 58 in marker stands for Active. Where on the plenum and which side of the block above the oil pan?
