Re: Corvette Museum
Maybe your right Jeff. But I am on it now...going to look through some old Vette mags. Besides, I promised another member an article from an old mag.

2nd ASC car
I certainly don't mean to be thowing this thread off topic, but for the sake of good discussion, I want to say "Bingo", because I found an article on the second ASC car. If any of you have it, it is the June '93 issue of Vette (someone please tell me where the last 20 years have gone!).
The second car I am referring to was the ASC LT1 Spyder. This car was built two years after the silver one (debuted at the 1993 NAIAS in Detroit). It was painted Riverside red (a bright red) and had a special intermediate paint coat of mirrored glass suspended in a clear finish, followed by the final clear protective finish. From what I see of this car, unlike the ZR-1, it didn't have the windshield cut down - at least not at the time of this article. Give a shout out if any of you want me to post a pic. |

Re: Corvette Museum
I had a bizarre dream last night about this disaster. I had pulled up to the museum in the ZR-1 for the Gathering, and there was a huge blinking neon sign on top, "Corvette Caverns".
Inside, they had partially filled the hole and installed a spiral staircase in the rotunda, leading down into a natural cavern. There were numerous exhibits, and cars were displayed on the cavern floor. "Big Block Grotto", with a light show and a recording of an uncapped L88 blasting through speakers. It was amazing, but cheezy, and way too touristy. What a great idea!..............Naaaaaaaaah.:eek: |

Here's the Spyder from a Motor Trend gallery. Originally silver.

I think the main idea for GM "over-seeing" any restoration is to help not only with teh physical restoration, but also to attempt to restore/maintain the image/value of these cars. That poor ZR-1 Spyder. |
