Question: Looking at a perspective 1990 ZR1 ?

[killain]

What should I be looking at/for in a perspective sale of a 1990 ZR-1. It's black, (Paint shot) has a brick under the front tire, so I assume the hand brake/transmission is either shot or worse. It has worn leather interior, and It hasn't has a state safety or emission inspection since 2008. Beyond that I'm not sure. I am waiting to talk to the owner, and if he's even remotely interested at a sale, I was going to go to Walmart, buy the cheapest battery that fits into the car, check the oil and see if it'll start.

But I'm very scared of an LT5. I know a little about the L-48, L-82, L-83, LT1 and the LSX engines, but I don't have a clue about estimating or analyzing a ZR-1 or the LT5 engine ? Any tips welcome !

No need to be afraid of the LT5 - it's pretty much bulletproof.
Take a look at the car and report back ...
