Default All 4 Generations of ZR1 Corvettes Together At Last

Many people don't realize that GM started the ZR1 Corvette in 1970 with the C3. This is because they only made a total of 53 C3's from 1970-72 and only 26 are still known to exist. Recently, we had the opportunity to bring along one of my dads super rare C3 ZR1 Corvettes to an epic photoshoot bringing together a C3 ZR1, C4 ZR-1, C6 ZR1, and a C7 ZR1 for possibly the first time ever. We worked with photographer Tim Broschinsky at a private airport in for some killer shots. Enjoy these pics and check out my full feature for all of the details about the ZR1's feature:

Ergo, I think they are lined up in the wrong order. The C3 should lead the pack.

Shocker....not the one on street outlaws (affiliation)?

Love the 70 ZR-1...basic no frills, solid lifters and a 4 spd
Had a black 90 which was a blast just didnt have that old school feel. Too reliable

Great article. I just bought a 19 zr1 Sebring orange so was pumped to see this article and pictures. My dad owned 3 c4 zr1’s. My 1st corvette was a 1973 so I have a soft spot for the c3’s. Thanks for posting
maybe they can post this in the c7 zr1 section. I’m sure those guys would appreciate it
