Default Re: Any ZR-1's in Rome or Istanbul?...

Hello from Switzerland,

I guess you visited the wrong part of Europe. In Switzerland you can find
Chevy Enthusiasts.About one year ago there was a 100 year celebration
for Chevrolet. It was in the town of La Chaux-de-Fonds, the town where
Louis Chevrolet was born.
I was there with my wife and some friends of us. There were about 1000
Chevrolets and about 30000 visitors.
There were 60 Chevrolets selected to be part of the parade. I got
the chance to participate with our '78 Blazer K5.
There was no ZR-1. If I had know that and if there were no friends
coming with us I would have choosen the ZR-1.
Nevertheless it was great. A good friend of us, Martin Sinzig, the author
of a very intersting book about Louis Chevrolet, was there too with his
wonderful '64 Chevelle SS. The book will be translated into English soon.
I recommend it very much.
Here are some pictures, which prove that Switzerland is "Chevy-Land".

Have a good time,

Franz
