I spoke at length to the original owner of my old l89 which is the l89 in the advertisement above. We spoke for hours about his mother bringing him to the dealership and buying him a brand new camaro for a graduation present. He was 17 1/2 and the mother titled the car in her name for him for insurance purposes.She said he could pick anyone he wanted. He said there was the l89 and a zl1 on the dealership floor. The l89 was a radio delete car but the dealer put a radio in because the dealer said noone was buying the car with a $4600 or so price tag and many complained it didn't even have a radio for that price . He said part of the reason he didn't pick the zl1 was he didn't want to make his mother spend a lot more money and he liked the lemans blue car. His mother did mail delivery for the usps. I wrote down about 10 pages of notes,after speaking to him 10 years or so ago.His story never faltered or changed on any details. He stared one night when there were riots in Cinncinati he drove to Kentucky to get away from the area and got a ticket because the policeman wouldn't believe the exhaust was stock. Being a demo I suppose it could have been from another dealer originally but it was on the floor at queen city back around Jan 1970 when the l89 had sold new after being there for 10 months. That is for certain based on first hand information And yes the ZL1 was fathom Green
