Default Re: ZL-1 #1 Mecum May 15 - 17

C first saw the list when Super Chev printed it. Everyone had the same opportunity so no one can cry foul. [It should be pointed out that ZL-1 values at that time were laughable. The #55 car, still one of the finest unrestored '69 Camaros, was advertised in the mid-'80s for $65,000]. Unlike today searching for the cars at that time was easy and casual. Wasn't all that hard to find someone with NCIC access; I had maybe 15-20 names and was able to locate one of them. There's maybe 10-12 that have never shown any registration for a variety of reasons and I'm sure a few of those still exist.

I jumped in here to set the record straight. BP has been involved with the Fred Gibb/ZL-1 story for nearly 25 years. No one has done more but several have earned more. He was awarded the documents and may do with them as he pleases.

While I'm at it Mr C also dug up quite a bit of ZL-1 info and did share it for some time. Both he and BP were helpful in our restoration of the #4 car.
