Does anyone know the details, or reason that this car is listed as "destroyed"? Is there any proof that it was "destroyed"?

The story I heard many years ago was that it is the former Shay Nichols car. It had been raced since new and was a full tube frame car. What remained of the cowl area still had the partial VIN stamp. The dash was gone.
It may have been crashed since, who knows. No matter; way too far gone to restore. Maybe they saved the body & VIN tags...

I hope to receive new information on Friday that would confirm that the car, without drive train, is still intact. I will share whatever I find out.

There is an old article on the car from when Shay raced it. It had a wild looking multi colored paint job with white interior and had won some trophy's as a show car.

I did find out additional information concerning ZL1 #5. The car is complete and unmolested.
It is tied up in legal issues at the moment. Once cleared up. I have an amazing story to tell. Probably 6 months away. Just remember you read it here first. |

One significant observation about the car Shay Nichols raced came up a few years ago. Vintage photos show a white standard interior. No Gibb ZL1 Camaro was built with a white standard interior. Maybe it was changed out or dyed; no one knows and no one knows what became of the car. It is possible the car she raced was not ZL1 #5.
