Anybody know the white '95 for sale posted on the registry site? Seems a little devoid of details to be real......

Looks like a REALLY nice car and in your back yard....

I'd make a trip and check it out! Priced decent too.

Hope there are no stories!

I'm not sure about the finish on the motor, check out the throttle body cover...looks like the paint is blistering?....or could it be the picture?.....would need to see in person, otherwise car does look nice.

Engine looks like it needs some cleaning / polishing....

Posibly a new paint job. (TB looks rough)

Otherwise the car looks great

T/B has the "Pox" from electrolysis. That's kind of common on most untouched motors I've seen.

Scott you should buy her & give her a good home!

Actually that blistering in not that uncommon, not usually this bad but you can see it on many ZR-1's.

Thanks...I was unaware of that.....any known reason or theories on why just the TB cover would blister?....

It's probably made of a lesser quality of metal, with impurities, relative to the rest of the engine. It probably is acting as somewhat of a sacrificial anode when there's any electrolysis occurring within the cooling system.

My wife would love me for it...."but honey, I needed red, white and blue, really......."

Just looks like a good deal......
