It's Home!
 
Arrived today. I took a leap of faith and bought it sight unseen because of the documentation (bloomington gold and top flight). It was everything as advertised and then some. I cannot express how near perfect this car is. You can eat off it underneath. Everything works. Paper work galore. I feel like I am 20 again when I would drool over this thing at the dealer. Plus it looks great in the garage next to the Centennial. Sorry but the other forum is easier to post pics.

Thank you Postman! It feels good to be home and having something I could only dream about 35yrs ago.

Your right,Corvette forum is easier to post photos......Great looking Z.....I think I remember seeing this on E bay......

You and I have something in common.we both bought our Zs sight unseen....I remember seeing 60 photos of my car and a detailed video.It was the color combo I wanted so I jumped....

No problems thank god......I wish you the same luck...Little nerve racking buying sight unseen but pretty unique experience when the truck arrives with your ride....

1991 # 428 pictures on Corvette forum ZR1 Discussion I believe...zrc3john...

Best of luck....

Congrats, a beauty!

They do put smiles on - acceleration, engine music, chirping or burning tires, wind blowing by. And I love the overrun on stock exhaust when slowing in gear.

Welcome back!

Hey 73, you are so right. Until it arrived I had self doubt, was second guessing myself and thinking how f'ing stupid I was. Then the trucker called saying he was in Dallas heading my way and the world was perfect. Last time I will probably buy sight unseen but I give great props to The Garage in Miami and Charlie. He is a man of his word and well deserved of his 100% rating.

As for the car, it came with a butt load of docs. It scored a 99.8% at Bloomington and a perfect 740 of 740 which garnered 10 bonus points for a 750 on a 740 scale for NCRS Performance Verification and Top Flight. Everything is 100% original except for the battery. It was replaced in 07 which is why its ironically now dead for me. Tires are original with 18k on them. They need to go to soon. Otherwise, I will not change anything on this car. You can eat off of it both on top and under.

Hey sounds good man....

I remember I had mine shipped from Chicago in an open trailer..The shipping company said they would give me the top level on the trailer,which they did....

Yes its a little nerve racking and to make matters worse my delivery guy was like five hours late and it arrived at night, in a misty November rain..So much for seeing your new car turn the corner on the trailer on a bright sunny day...I see you had better luck as far as the weather than me...Good for you..

Next day when I took it out of my garage it was everything they said it was..

Im with you though,I dont think I will buy another car sight unseen but you never know....

Best of luck with the Z.....
