Default Re: ZL1 Corvette Info

Last I heard,it was in Florida,in a collection.I have some pretty cool inner GM Documents about this Vette.Seems once it was confiscated and going up for auction in the 1990's,GM was jockeying for position to acquire it again.I have about 12 GM Letters talking candidly back & fourth between the higher ups,with their opinion about how to get this,and what it's true value is.They hired 3 experts to go look at it,and determined it was real.But the final bidding exceeded their wildest dreams,and they let it go.I guess they wanted it for a possible Chevrolet Museum back then.
I also uncovered a 1969 Chevrolet Zone letter,telling all dealers that the St.Louis Ass. Plant has a Low mile 1969 Aluminum block Engineers(George)Corvette for sale,and to contact them if interested.It was in fact,this Yellow ZL-1 Corvette.

Here it is:
ROGER JUDSKI ZL-1
