Home at last
Recently purchased a 95 ZR-1, on the Labour day weekend.
Finally got the car home this past weekend.
#103, Admiral Blue, Grey int. 1 of 8
40 000 km's
One owner car.
The car was in excellent shape to start with, but with some help
from Flyin Ryan, it has been completly detailed. The car needs a power polish for the finishing touch, but it looks great already.
Can't say enough about the color.
Took the car for a drive, still have a perma-grin. I have a modded '78
pace car that has done 10.83 in the quarter, so it obviously doesn't have the same acceleration, but the top end is amazing, and it is nice to be able to turn a corner at those higher speeds, not to mention how nice it is to have a use for my left foot again. Been a while since i have
shifted gears, forgot how much i missed it!
Got some pics. http://i239.photobucket.com/albums/f...7/IMG_2134.jpghttp://i239.photobucket.com/albums/f...7/IMG_2143.jpghttp://i239.photobucket.com/albums/f...7/IMG_2146.jpg

Thanks guys, it's nice to be part of the ZR-1 family.
I was in high school when these cars were built, and they were so far out of my reach, i never thought owning one would be a reality.
These cars have some serious history behind them,an it feels good to own a little piece of that. Couldn't be happier with the car.

Remember your car was originally shipped to Canada. It is one of 12 Admiral Blue ZR-1s produced in 1995 and it is most likely the ONLY Admiral Blue ZR-1 delivered to Canada in 1995. In addition only 17 TOTAL ZR-1s were delivered to Canada in 1995. SO...I would say your car is 1 of 1.
