Overview of 1990 Chevrolet Corvette ZR-1 For Sale by Owner

If you want to get your hands on a relatively modern Corvette with true classic car potential as time passes by, the fourth generation of Chevy’s runaway hit is a great place to start. Introduced in 1984, the fourth generation, or C4, ran for twelve years. It’s got a great eighties-inspired design, a selection of reasonably modern creature comforts, and performance that is still highly relevant in 2025. Of course if you want your C4 to have a bit more pep, the ZR-1 was the way to go. Introduced in 1990, this variant saw intensive research and development done by Group Lotus of the United Kingdom. Yes, that's the same Lotus that makes lightweight sports cars. That’s why you’re sure to enjoy the driving dynamics of this 1990 Chevrolet Corvette ZR-1 that’s up for sale right now, with just 7,765 miles to its name. It’s definitely a collector’s item with this low mileage, but that doesn’t mean you should bubble wrap and mothball it. Nope, it’s raring to be driven and shown off.

Exterior and Interior

Dressed in a bright red coat, the timeless ʼ80s design of the C4 beautifully shines through with this 1990 Chevrolet Corvette ZR-1. Signature features include pop-up headlamps, bumper-mounted driving lights, and silver turbine-inspired alloy wheels shod with new tires. The car also has dual removable roof panels so that you can enjoy an open-topped driving experience when springtime rolls around later this year. The two-seat interior of this 1990 Chevrolet Corvette ZR-1 comes with features such as the usual power conveniences that we take for granted nowadays. Then, you’ll find air conditioning, a decent head unit, a nice speaker system, and a part-digital instrument cluster. The two leather-upholstered seats for driver and passenger sport power adjustments as well. There’s also a decent luggage compartment behind the two seats, accessed via the cabin, or through the large rear glass liftback.

Engine

With a report 380 horsepower on tap and sent to the rear wheels via a 6-speed manual gearbox, this 1990 Chevrolet Corvette ZR-1 is a driver’s delight all the way. That power comes courtesy of a highly turned naturally aspirated 5.7L V8, which sings a beautiful song while you wind it up. The car also includes a recent oil change and a new battery.

1963 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible Restomod LS1

Current Ask
$85,750

This 1963 Chevrolet Corvette Sting Ray Convertible Restomod takes one of the most celebrated shapes in American sports-car history and updates the experience underneath without losing the visual drama that made the C2 Corvette iconic. Showing approximately 65,888 miles, this example pairs its Victory Red exterior and black interior with a modern 5.7L LS1 V8, electronic fuel injection, and a 4-speed manual transmission. Vintage Air climate control, Dakota Digital RTX instrumentation, upgraded suspension components, modernized braking hardware, and aftermarket wheels move the driving experience well beyond a stock early Corvette while preserving the low-slung roadster proportions enthusiasts immediately recognize.

Current Ask
$55,000

Few American performance cars have the visual drama of an early C3 Corvette, and this 1968 Chevrolet Corvette Restomod adds a serious dose of big-block attitude to that already iconic shape. Showing approximately 58,617 miles, it wears Tuxedo Black over a Black interior and keeps the unmistakable low-slung proportions, removable T-tops, and cockpit-style cabin that made the third-generation Corvette such a standout. The real story, though, is under the hood, where a 467ci V8 built from a 454ci block brings the car well beyond factory specification. With the current owner reporting 609 HP and 597 LB-FT of torque on 91 octane, this is the kind of Corvette built for someone who wants classic C3 style with considerably more muscle behind the throttle.

The 1977 Chevrolet Corvette Coupe represents the later evolution of the C3, and this example brings a particularly appealing ownership story to the table. Showing approximately 72,741 miles, it is powered by an L48 350ci V8 with a Quadrajet 4-barrel carburetor and a 3-speed Turbo-Hydramatic automatic transmission. Finished in red over a black leather interior, it retains the classic C3 formula with removable T-top roof panels, Rally wheels, 4-wheel power disc brakes, and dual exhaust. Even more notable, the current owner reports that this has been a single-owner car and that they have been the sole driver since new.

Current Ask
$42,500

This 1972 Chevrolet Nova is the kind of classic that proves you do not need stripes, spoilers, or a big-block badge to have genuine muscle-era appeal. Showing approximately 53,285 miles, it pairs a 307ci V8 with a 2-barrel carburetor and 2-speed Powerglide automatic, giving it the easygoing, torque-rich feel of a traditional small-block Chevy cruiser. The custom orange finish gives the car plenty of presence, while Rally-style wheels, factory air conditioning, power steering, and power brakes make the package feel especially usable. It is a clean, straightforward Nova built around the formula enthusiasts still appreciate today: V8 power, rear-wheel drive, simple mechanicals, and unmistakable early-1970s Chevrolet styling.

1964 Chevrolet El Camino Restomod

Current Ask
$39,700

The El Camino has always lived in its own lane—part muscle car, part pickup, and all attitude—and this 1964 Chevrolet El Camino Restomod leans hard into the performance side of that equation. Showing approximately 538 miles, it wears a custom Burgundy finish over a Black Procar interior and packs a 383ci stroker V8 backed by a TH400 3-speed automatic. This isn’t a lightly updated cruiser; the build reaches into the engine bay, suspension, braking system, cabin, and supporting hardware to give the first-year El Camino a much sharper, more modern personality while keeping the long-roofline-meets-pickup-bed silhouette that made these cars so memorable in the first place.
