I remember seeing this car in person the year Porterfield brought the car to SCS Indy and it caught on fire in the trailer on the way to the show. Bill had bandages on his hands from the burns he got getting it out of the trailer and the teenage me thought he was the coolest guy in the world for not letting it burn to the ground. I wore the ZL1 shirt he sold for years until it turned yellow and had about a hundred holes in it. Those were some good times before the internet and smart phones!!!
