- The Heart of the Beast
- Avg. Customer Rating: 5 Stars
- An outstanding book that explains the genesis of the ZR-1 Corvette from pre-production to its completion of the model run in 1995. A great book and easy read that explains and details all the roadblocks and barriers that almost caused this model of Corvette not to go into production. The book contains great photographs and very interesting perspectives from engineers, designers and GM management/GM supervisors. A very good historical reference that details in short order what the Heart of the Beast is truly about and the mystique all owners share in owning a small bit of Corvette history. A must have for all ZR-1 owners and those who plan on owning a ZR-1 someday.
