Check this out. Scroll down to the last car.

This used to belong to a friend of mine and me. Kind of a cool story. I actually found this car on my dealerships used car lot! My general manager was bitching up a storm at the used car manager and said "Why the hell did you buy a Z28 with no power windows or locks from the auction!" Like a dog my ears perked up and I said huh? A Z with no power windows and locks? Imediately I thought 1LE. I ran down the stairs and was repeating over and over it can't be, it can't be. When I swung the door open and looked at the parts identification label in the door my heart stopped. I went back in the store and said "Hey Eric don't worry about it....I will buy it." He just looked at me blankly and shrugged his shoulders. I bought it with my friend Bill and put it up for sale. The car sat for sale for ever and finally Chris from TRM bought it and it has just been sitting since...I am shocked. When I advertised it I even said it was the COPO of the future and would be worth big bucks someday. No bites. I have to say that car is fast and cool as hell! A true bare fisted street warrior!

Attached is a pic of it when I was in on it.
