Default Re: ZL-1 Race cars

Terry - If my information is correct, Jim Rathmann Chevrolet in Melbourne FL. sold two ZL1 Camaros. ZL1 # 33 a Hugger Orange 4sp and ZL1 # 52 a LeManns blue TH400 car. I have read that both went to Australia and the # 52 ZL1 was drag raced many years by the original owner. That picture you posted may be the other car still with it's original color.
I have a picture of a 1968 Camaro race car that was sponsored by Jim Rathmann Chevrolet. On a side note, Jim Rathmann was the Indy 500 winner in 1960 and also drove the 1969 Indy 500 Camaro Pace car.
