Elfi was a stunner!

Zora handed me this trophy at the 1994 Show for my '74 Coupe. I met him at several of the Malcolm Konner shows.

I like the tan interior of Delivery 1! But the cleaning.....

Really good tribute to Zora and wife.

I wonder if this Corvette survives and who owns it? Great story for who owns it now this car was Zora wife demo back in 1957

Mike Furman@Criswell

Hey Ed, I would imagine that 57 Fuelie had some "GO fast" parts in it.

and on that note...I owned a Blue/Blue 1988 Corvette that was originally ordered for Zora Duntov's private secretary of 25 years.
If you look at the ship to section on the window sticker it states: "CPC Group Engineering Garage" instead of a dealership name!
Trust me, that Corvette had some engine mods that could not be seen...and it was one quick C4!

Mike,
Thanks for this glimpse into the private lives of Zora and Elfi. They complimented each other perfectly! I especially liked the boating photos. Beth and I both grew up on the lake in Chattanooga, TN and enjoyed skiing behind wooden Chris-Craft inboard runabout boats, and later, the larger cruisers that traveled the Tennessee River from the Chattanooga Yacht Club south to the Guntersville Yacht Club in Alabama. Beautiful fall color cruises were enjoyed through the Tennessee River Valley south of Chattanooga.

My favorite legend is that he refused to have his pic taken with this car because it only had 3 bolt wheels. It came from GM's California styling center. I think it required a V6? Later a V8 was shoe horned in?
An engineer from beginning and to end.

Hi Mike,
Wow I really enjoyed your post !!! Amazing history and the pictures of both Zora and Elfi were so nice. They lived a productive life style and the pictures reflected a strong marriage. I always wanted to meet them but twice my plans to attend a car show, where they were hosting, were interrupted due to military duty.
That gray ZR1 convertible was awesome; oh my what a car that one is, so beautiful/powerful !!!
I will watch the podcast tomorrow. Be healthy and stay safe. Thank you for sharing Mike.
I am eagerly waiting on the C8 ZO6 HTC.
Very Respectfully,

OnPoint

Mike - I greatly enjoyed the pics of Zora and his lovely wife. What a classy couple.

If GM doesn't name one of the high performance variants after Zora, it'll be a damn crime.
