Thumbs up Props to Corey @ Henderson Performance

I’ve been searching for a ZR-1 for some time now. I found an interesting one, but it was in San Antonio and I’m in Wisconsin. When I asked about someone to look at it for me (see http://www.zr1.net/forum/showthread.php?t=17046 ), several members recommended Corey (http://www.hendersonperformance.com/ )

Long story short: what an awesome guy. He met the current owner at his shop on Saturday and really looked the car over for me. I knew there were some issues, but I didn’t want to worry about a bad LT5 or ZF6 immediately! His price? I need to buy him lunch sometime in the future.

I’m sure that those of you in the area know what a great place this is. I’m letting the rest of you know too.

David, I haven't seen it in person yet - here are a couple images. The seller and I are working out the details and I'm trying to decide between a) shipping it up, or b) flying down and driving it up.

My plans are to slowly get it into shape. This isn't a NCRS Vette, but I hope to make it a nice driver.

Your experience is typical of Corey...... always there when you need him.

Corey can do anything! I've seen some pretty wild projects in his shop, ranging from installing an LS1 in a BMW, to all out race cars, drag, road course & salt. What's in his garage? A ZR-1 of course. He's not only an incredible performance guru, but also an all around, stand up guy that has an annual charity event. I'm proud to say he's a darn good friend of mine.

An hour North of Milwaukee. Unfortunately no, but I hope to have it presentable in time for BG.

I absolutly concur. I remember the LS1 M4 BMW. That was a huge job. $14k worth. He has the Midas touch with any car or motorcycle and he's still in his late 30's. He's gonna be around a long time. And we are all very blessed to have him. When you just can't figure it out you bring it to Coreys.
