Re: 1989 ZR-1 Pilot #004 Thread
Yeah right. I think this happened either at the Heritage Center or at the trade school. It looks like someone tried to get it going. There's a newer oil filter on it, a newer battery etc. So I don't blame Craig for that one.

Re: 1989 ZR-1 Pilot #004 Thread
Interesting that it has the late version cam cover emblems (91-95) Could mean something, could mean nothing?

Re: 1989 ZR-1 Pilot #004 Thread
This is an extremely interesting thread!
Especially seeing up close the differences in the PCV system (only one PCV valve!) and the coolant lines coming off the plenum are all metal instead of having some rubber sections like the production Z's have. The line at the back of the plenum where the brake booster line connects is different too, the metal section is longer and has a mounting bracket on it. Is the coolant piping under the air-horn any different? Could we get a picture of that area? I was wondering about the cam cover emblems as well. But if the emblems weren't finalized at the time they put the car together, it probably never had emblems to begin with. Then, years later (maybe someone at the trade school) stuck some '91-'95 production emblems on it. They should have put the '90 emblems on it. Or maybe having no emblems would be more correct.

Re: 1989 ZR-1 Pilot #004 Thread
Not to downplay the the Sheridan Vocational Technical Center ("Sheridan"), but I see little evidence that they did anything to the car. I doubt they added emblems. In fact it appears to have lost the nose emblem and the ZR-1/LT5 bumper emblem when it was in their care. (Which I guess to be about 10 years 1995 to 2006)
I have a feeling that this car was a "PEP" car, as discussed in the other thread, and I would suspect that at that time the emblems would have been added. What level 8 or above manager would pop the hood on his company ZR-1 and have a missing medalion? Perhaps Sheridan painted the car, but they didn't do engine work to it since they could not drive it, run it etc. In fact there is a black oil filter on the LT-5 when Tyler took pictures of it in 2006. Now there's a blue service filter. "Is the coolant piping under the air-horn any different?" I'll go check.. Pics soon. Eric

Don't think it means anything since they were probably put on the car well after 91
