1990 Chevrolet Corvette Zr1 on 2040-cars
Jonesboro, Texas, United States
Feel free to ask me any questions about the car : raymundoreengleby@ukfun.com .1990 Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 - this was the hottest American automobile made this year. In 1990 the Corvette ZR1
set several world records for durability, time and speed at a track in Texas. The ZR1 package was a $27,016 option
in 1990 with a total list price of over $60,000.
This car was originally purchased by a doctor at Jon Allen Chevrolet in Daytona Beach, Florida. The car was stored
in one of the doctors garages for 24 years along with many other collectables. Once I purchased it I took it to
Carr's Corvettes in Plano, Texas. They went through the entire car and found nothing wrong with it. They replaced
the tires and shocks. They were both a safety concern after sitting all that time. The original Goodyear tires are
wrapped in plastic and the original shocks are in a box in my garage and is part of this deal if wanted. Having the
original tires is unique if you ever want to show the car. Carr's Corvettes changed all the oils and flushed all
the other fluids like the radiator and brakes. The engine was designed by Lotus and built by Mercury Marine for GM, they produced it for 6 years. From what I have
read this motor was the basis for the Cadillac NorthStar which was built for years and quite reliable. In 1990 the
LT-5 had 375 HP and 370 ft lbs of torque. It has a valet key which if turned off reduces the HP and helps to stop
others from driving it hard while your enjoying dinner. The top speed on this car is rated at 180 MPH.
Automobile-catalog.com has several pages of statistics and specifications related to this car.
This car is all original and the only 2 things that I have taken off the car (tires and shocks), I have if you want
them. The car runs and drives like a 25 year old brand new car. It drives great around the city and on the freeway.
As I mentioned in the condition section above, the only issue with the car that I know of is one of the seat belts
sticks sometimes when you pull it out.
If you have ever wanted a C4 ZR1 this is one you don't want to pass on. It's a beautiful car and the only thing it
needs is a good new owner. The car has never seen rain since I owned it and the doctor told me the same thing for
the 24 years he owned it. Once you see the under carriage of the car you will understand. If you need to ship the
car, once you find the shipper you are comfortable with, I will help them to get it loaded.
The last thing I have is to answer the question of why am I selling it. The truth is I have several cars. I ordered
a 2016 Z06 and in order to keep peace in the household I have to give up 2 cars to get one new Z06. It was hard but
I think it will be worth it.
The car is being sold in as is condition. I will answer any questions you have the best that I can. Thanks and good
luck.

GM to idle car production at five factories as Americans continue CUV love affair
Mon, Dec 19 2016In case you needed another reminder that Americans have fallen out of love with sedans, General Motors today announced plans to idle five factories in January in a bid to cut its inventory to 70 days. Detroit-Hamtramck Assembly ( Buick LaCrosse, Cadillac CT6, Chevrolet Volt and Impala) and Fairfax Assembly in Kansas ( Chevy Malibu) will stop production for three weeks. Lansing Grand River ( Cadillac ATS and CTS, and Chevy Camaro) is going down for two weeks, while Lordstown, OH ( Chevy Cruze) and Bowling Green, KY ( Chevy Corvette) will go idle for a week each, Automotive News reports. GM's shutdown reflects a broader problem with the company's supply – at 847,000 vehicles, the company's supply increased unsteadily from a low of 629,000 units in January of 2016. That's more than a 25 percent increase in the past year. Citing information from Autodata, The Detroit News reports that at the end of November, GM had a 168-day supply of LaCrosses, 177 days' worth of Camaro, 170 days of Corvette, 121 days for Cruze, 119 days for ATS, 132 days for CTS, and 110 days of CT6. Meanwhile, inventory of the company's more popular vehicles is actually below the professionally accepted 60- to 70-day supply, The News reports. The Trax, Colorado pickup, and GM's full-size SUVs are sitting below 50 days and experiencing year-over-year sales increases. GM needs a rethink of its inventory levels, which is something that's apparently coming. "We're going to be responsible in managing our inventory levels," GM spokesman Jim Cain told The News. Another unnamed spokesman told Automotive News the company's day-to-day supplies would "fluctuate before moderating at year-end." But at least one analyst thinks this won't be the last time Detroit needs to stop production to level things out. "Incentives are elevated, residuals are declining, and rates are rising," Brian Johnson, an analyst with Barclays, told The News. "And while GM in particular may benefit in the months ahead from new product launches, it's important to recognize that GM's inventory is elevated at the moment, and it wouldn't surprise us if they need to announce another production cut – which could pressure the stock."

Man surprises girlfriend with C7 Corvette
Mon, 07 Oct 2013How would you react if someone just showed up at your place of work with a new, 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray, complete with all the trimmings? While a lot of us would likely be flipping out over the still rare sports car, it's a fair bet many more of us would be responding like Pattie here, whose boyfriend stopped by her work to show her her new C7.
Speechless and shocked as she seems, she does end up taking it out for a drive, despite claiming she wasn't really outfitted to handle the car's seven-speed manual transmission at the time. From the sound of the video, we got the impression that she knew the car was coming, just not that it was anywhere near ready for delivery. It also, as Pattie says, seems like her boyfriend is more excited about the car than she (which, can we blame him?). Take a look down below for the full video of this C7 Stingray delivery.
Amelia Island 2013: Chevrolet Corvette Sting Ray from concepts to split windows
Wed, 13 Mar 2013While this year marks 60 years of the Chevrolet Corvette, the 2013 Amelia Island Concours d'Elegance focused on one of the coupe's most sought after models, the 1963 Sting Ray. General Motors design boss Ed Welburn was on hand to show off the all-new C7 Corvette, but even the hard-edged styling of the 2014 Stingray couldn't take away from the beautiful 1963 models sitting out on the field.
In addition to the original Sting Ray and the 1959 Sting Ray Concept, some of the other classic 'Vettes included "Big Tank" racecars, an interesting cutaway coupe, a right-hand-drive Z06 and the attention-grabbing 1963 Corvette Rondine by Pininfarina. Another impressive Corvette was the 1964 Corvette XP-819 rear-engine prototype. Owner Mike Yager had the car finished as a driving chassis for this year's show, but promises the car will be back to its original glory in time for next year's event.
