Now I Can Afford To Restore The ZR1!! - ZR-1 Net Registry Forums

Hated to see it go, but sold one of my 53's yesterday. Delivered it to Toledo, OH to a geat car guy. He'll enjoy it as much as I did. The car was actually signed by two of the original Flint Assembly Line workers who built it back in 53. I met them at the 50th Anniversary in Flint, back in 2003.

Remember, if it weren't for the 53, we would never have had a ZR1!!!!

Thanks for the compliments, guys. I still have one more 53 to restore and keep. I'm just glad to start on the ZR1 now and have a daily driver.
