I am absolutely amazed as to how many ultra rare Corvettes you have come in contact with. I think I found one for which you had no involvement. See next post.

Anther friend from Coral Gables who owns a beautiful 67 L88 Corvette drove it to Bloomington Gold from Fl. with a friend of his driving the truck with the needed 110. A great Corvette guy, Roger Judski, from central Florida now owns the car......Bill S
Since Bill passed on this one () I'll step up:

George Heberling was the Assistant Staff Engineer for the Engineering/Assembly Liaison group at the St Louis plant. George drove one of the ZL1 Corvettes as his company vehicle.

I went to GMI (aka General Motors Institute, now Kettering University) with George's son, Kris.
