Re: Any ZR-1's in Rome or Istanbul?...
Hello from Switzerland,
I guess you visited the wrong part of Europe. In Switzerland you can find Chevy Enthusiasts.About one year ago there was a 100 year celebration for Chevrolet. It was in the town of La Chaux-de-Fonds, the town where Louis Chevrolet was born. I was there with my wife and some friends of us. There were about 1000 Chevrolets and about 30000 visitors. There were 60 Chevrolets selected to be part of the parade. I got the chance to participate with our '78 Blazer K5. There was no ZR-1. If I had know that and if there were no friends coming with us I would have choosen the ZR-1. Nevertheless it was great. A good friend of us, Martin Sinzig, the author of a very intersting book about Louis Chevrolet, was there too with his wonderful '64 Chevelle SS. The book will be translated into English soon. I recommend it very much. Here are some pictures, which prove that Switzerland is "Chevy-Land". Have a good time, Franz

And I thought you Italian guys are only interested in Ferarris and
Lamborghinis My wife drives an Abarth 500, me for my part I would like to get an Alfa Romeo Montreal one day. But it is difficult to find a really good one for a fair price. They all are to expensive. Franz
