Re: Another Youtuber with a C4ZR1
Does he say what he paid, I skimmed through it and heard him say he paid 4 figures for it. I paid 4 figures for mine too.. 12 years ago

Re: Another Youtuber with a C4ZR1
The story is the original owner advertised his furniture business with the car.

Re: Another Youtuber with a C4ZR1
Your right Phil, that’s at the guy.
Here’s the thread over at CF regarding this car. Includes photos. That car will take a lot of work. Not something everyone would do. H https://www.corvetteforum.com/forums...-up-zr1-2.html

Re: Another Youtuber with a C4ZR1
Has anyone noticed that this YouTube video has gotten 687k views in 2 days. He has quite the following. Let’s see what, if anything, he actually does with this car.
Let see, the SES light is on with the car running. So no secondaries. It overheats just sitting there idling and blows smoke out the back. I’d say that engine has some issues, H

Re: Another Youtuber with a C4ZR1
I think that is "Mattress Mack's" old car, he is an institution in Houston. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jim_McIngvale
I think that if the present owner uses some clever marketing, he could drum up some interest in this one. Mack has loads of money so I assume that that paint job probably cost a bundle and maybe able to be restored. That 13 Mil did not come from his pocket, he had an insurance policy to cover those losses, just clever marketing on his part. Last edited by 32valvesftw; 01-11-2020 at 09:56 AM. |

Re: Another Youtuber with a C4ZR1
Looks like he's actually working on the car now:

Re: Another Youtuber with a C4ZR1
He’s got his work cut out for him. He should leave that radiator out because there’s a lot more in that engine bay that needs work.
I’m thinking he gonna need a trans and rear diff rebuild.
