For the Philadelphia area, the Penske and Lafferty dealers are pretty well known but the Degnan ad is new one for me - likely a dealer transfer from Penske who I think got 4-5 of 'em. Similar, is the Hauser Chev ZL1 that was previously thought to be a Gibb sold car.

And thanks a TON Pete for digging up this old Nankivell ad. The car mentioned as &quot;The '69 500-Pace Car, on Display and For Sale at Nankivell's&quot; is none other than my actual Pacecar 124679N608347. Nankivell wouldn't actually sell this car until mid-November (ownership transferred from Chevrolet to Nankivell on Nov 13th, and then sold on Nov 17th). So the car must have been on display at Nankivell's dealership for several months while still technically being owned by Chevrolet.

Thanks Pete!

If I need to find something I have notes from Pete to use &quot;how to find stuff&quot;. Always works.

One of Sabatines cars was a XL1- the other was Yenko- which is still out of the Washington, NJ area owned by a guy it ran on the road called the leaping lizard. Lenovo Sabatines speed shop prepped my 1970 L-78 Cheverly for me in his shop which I ran at Varga and Island speedway for a year. Watched Len go head to head in final round at Island with both of his cars with someone else driving the Yenko- and the XL1-won. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/flag.gif[/img]

I noticed that Pace Car add, that's very interesting. I wish there were some pictures from the dealership.
I love the pace cars.......

The Leapin Lizard is still under cover!!

Re: Old Newspaper Ads
 

I like the &quot;Cameros&quot; Penske was offering. Penske had quite a bit of advertising dollars spent on marketing that green ZL-1. Really surprised that the dealers that were selling them (ZL-1s) referred to them as such. Sure, we all know what they are today, but did the hot rodders and racers of the day know that nomenclature? After all, it wasn't displayed on the car like a Z/28.
