I saw your car last year at Eureka Springs. I was a little surprised the judges picked my ZR over yours for the top-five award. I enjoyed looking at your car.

That said, as cool as my plaque is from Eureka, your cover shot on the mag is way cooler.

Congrats. You've got a great looking ZR, and based on my conversations with you at Eureka, you seem like a nice, stand-up dude.

You should get a second copy of the mag to tuck away and keep for a long time.

If you don't mind, please PM with what you think of the LPE mods and what they were like to work with.

Awesome looking car!


Exactly what has been done to it (exterior, performance and interior)?

Exterior I made my own emblems, black chrome wheels, rear carbon spoiler and valance, all lights blacked out and lowered. Interior is just floor mats and short shifter and performance is the LPE package that adds about 60 rwhp.
