Default ’89 ZR-1 Prototype Photos.

I visited Nelson Automotive in Marysville, OH today to look to look at some of the ZR-1’s they have for sale.

While there I noticed a wide-body C4 with ’89 wheels, got a little closer to see that it had the digital dash. It is one of “4 or 5 unmolested” ’89 prototypes to be in existence.

The gentlemen I was talking to is friends with a Mr. Ungurean who has about 50 Corvette’s in his collection. I think this is one he was buying (not 100% sure on that). He told me that the going price for this car is in the $200,000 to $250,000 range. They have a few other ’Zs with double digit miles on them, they are literally time capsules and are flawless. One cool thing I noticed on one of the ’90 Z’s was the windshield cutout for the radar detector/garage door opener is larger than the later models. There was a ’94 Z beside it for comparison.











Link to a few of the Z’s at the dealer I was able to view.

Wish there was more light coming in the showroom to showoff the color, it is cool.

Tyler,

You are more than welcome to use whatever images you wish. It was a happy accident coming across this ’89 today.

Here are a few more pictures that I took of the Z today. I can only post 5 images per post.

Few more shots:












Thank you for the heads up on the Detroit/Indianapolis event. I unfortunately won’t be in those areas around that time, but it’s nice to see these landmark Corvettes being preserved and displayed.
