That is nice. I like it alot. Very clean. I have not heard of the zr6 code either. His auction seems really detailed and it would throw me off if he lied about that one thing. Interesting.

I did a google search fo the ZR6 RPO code, and it looks like it does mean show car.

Whether or not that makes it any more valuable is still questionable, though. You can be sure that all kinds of slack jawed yokels have put their hands all over it, slobbered on it, sneezed on it, and whatnot :P

Also, its been repainted, T/As didnt come in all black, only GTAs.

Well, I can tell you one thing, who ever buys it will need to do some brake work on it. The right front brake caliper is frozen and it actaully looks like it might have had that problem for some time (there is a lot of wear on the brake pedal = lot's of city driving).


Some also mickey-moused the aircleaner box with wire ties. All in all, it looks like a good find. It'll be interesting to see how much it'll go for.

Later,
-Mike
