"LT-1 ZR1" on Ebay

[Pat M.]

Anyone know this car? Interesting answer to the question of why there are no VIN or stamp pad pictures:

Did ZR-1's come with a fan shrould ?

Re: "LT-1 ZR1" on Ebay

Corvette Black Book says they have metal fan shrouds.

Edit add: It says 70-71 have metal shrouds, and 72 does not have any.

I've seen this car at a Northern California NCRS chapter meet in Sacramento, several years ago. Neat car.

Re: "LT-1 ZR1" on Ebay

I spoke to the seller a couple years ago when I was doing research to track-down the original purchaser of my '70 ZR1 coupe as both our cars were delivered in CA.

It was interesting to hear him tell the story of taking the car out of the basement along with all the fresh-take-off parts. Even back then he said something about the car being a college fund for his daughter. If I remember correctly, I think he even helped her into a Corvette as a daily driver.

I've never seen the car in person, but I agree with Warren - it sure it neat. And the history makes it even more unique. I expect he'll get his $150k reserve.

I suspect this car had some body damage in the past, note the left front grille but it's still noteworthy. Steve

???The ad states "NO HIT" body? Also, dropped his or her starting price from 150k to 105k!

I'm guessing his daughter has changed her mind on schools, per Dan's post.

Isn't this exactly one of the problems we continue to see:

"Corvette folks know the Bloomington Gold/NCRS awards shown verifies all the casting numbers and date codes are correct on this car (100%);"

This is in one of the answers to a buyer. VERIFY???

Kevin, that's what I was alluding to in my original post. First he shows an unsigned chapter NCRS award. Second, his comments above don't necessarily have anything to do with the authenticity of VIN and stamp pad numbers. That's why I said it was "interesting."

Re: "LT-1 ZR1" on Ebay

Those awards do not show all the casting and stamped #'s that are important to a car. There is no verification of rear axle assembly stampings, nor are there verification of transmission assembly stampings, as well as frame / vin derivative stampings.

Now the OP is back on track!
Not to say, the awards are only good for that moment in time..........
