Certainly this car fits the pictures that I seen before being that it is a convertible.

I see an orange car with a vinyl top. My opinion is that it is just an L-88 car that probably had a ZL1 in it when he bought it and he was conned.

I DOUBT THAT! Being that he was a State Trooper at the time it wouldn't have been smart. His connection to Don Yenko comes from the fact that his dad bought GMC trucks for his fleet from Yenko. I have 2 friends that grew up w/ John and his cars. He traded in a blue 1968 L88 'Vette, w/ around 2400 miles, on the orange ZL-1. Andy Africa bought the traded L88 and luckily, it still survives today. My friend Burr Corbett mounted the first set of slicks this car ever had on it and ran around quite a bit w/ John. When I asked Burr about Johns' car he stated "why would John take a perfectly good L88 with only 2400 miles on it and trade it for another L88 a year later? He traded it because he found out about the ZL-1 option and he wanted the baddest 'Vette available!" The other friend is Jimmy Stewart (not THE Jimmy Stewart) who grew up near John and has relayed to me many a harrowing rides in the car.
