Re: 1992 ZR-1 for $12,900
I wonder what happened to the car to need a new windshield and it ending up at an auction.
Looks like you got a very good deal for the car. Hope it works out for you! *Edit* I just remembered the car also has DRM trailing arm brackets in the rear and up front a bump steer kit vs traditional tie rods.

I drained the full oil catch can. Smelled like gas looked like oil. |

Des Moines, IA is home today. Problem free. Yellow gets way more attention than other colors!

Re: 1992 ZR-1 for $12,900
To get any ZR-1 for $12,900.00 is a pretty damn good score.
To get one that runs for $12,900.00 is even better. To get one that runs well for $12,900.00 is a home-run. To get this one with all of the above plus some damn fine upgrades is a Grand Slam, out of the park home run in game 7 of the World Series! Well Bought for certain! Marty |

Re: 1992 ZR-1 for $12,900
Thanks for the nice comments! I agree!
Made it home with no issues. After 985 miles I checked the oil this morning and only 1/2 quart down. 1,185 miles total. Only Issue was noticed after washing the car immediately after getting home. Car was at operating temp. Had my first oil leak to date. I will investigate. The oil spot shown below is 6" in diameter and at a different location than the other pictures. But this spot occurred in the time I washed and dried the car. FYI Last edited by Zman; 09-21-2020 at 09:57 PM. |

Re: 1992 ZR-1 for $12,900
Im thinking transmission? Oil seems too black. I was parked there for maybe 10 minutes. Shifter handle on first day was hot to the touch, fine after that. Thoughts?

Difficult to tell from the pictures.
Best thing is to jack up the car and check underneath. Would be a good time for a changing of all the fluids.
