If that is the same car as #13 then it would have the holes in the trunk area just below the bumper for the full bumper guards vs the bumperettes that are currently on there. Also didn't the pilot and very early cars that got guards did not have the rubber cushions.??.. Or was that a situation where there were 2 suppliers?

Neat car and thanks to all for the hard work in documenting these rare vehicles !! I assume that these cars got assigned and distributed to dealers after GM was done w them? Were they then sold as used cars?

Darrel,

We are evaluating to see if the bumperettes were properly physically attached to the car or staged for the photos using something else to attach them for the photo shoot?? Yes we will be looking for the holes during the restoration.

BTW... good news- #N100013 is getting Lacquer paint just like N100001 did.

Needs spoilers, cowl hood, Z stripes, SS emblems and Rallys. (Just kidding.)

I like the omission of the emblems and the lack of blackout on the pot metal, tail bezels. Looks good to me.


Phil,

Any research done on the 68's, Pilot/ Prototype? I have some neat pics from a 68 Z that spent time in R &amp; D with some weird stuff on it...I'm sure others know the car,red,black rally rims,sold out of Applegate....mostly factory paint and basically untouched.
