I thought everyone would be interested in what I found at the Atlantic city car auction. Well I found or should I say Golden Classics (NJ car dealer) found a L.A. built ZL1 vin 124379L502502. What a surprise. I think it was "ignition man's". Yep #70 has been located Ha Ha.

You beat me,Paceme! I moved the paper on the dash (that was covering the vin # on the AC ZL1)and saw the "L" (in the vin#) I then made them open the hood to see the firewall tag, when confronted with the info they soon told me that they "were not sure what the car was". The paper covering the Vin # was a bogus "Berger" window sticker. What did you think of the Black (ext)/houndstooth (int) bogus Yenko that they had?

The ZL-1 that was at Atlantic City was in Charlotte NC last spring for sale. The guy who was selling it last year at the event admitted it was a clone and he was asking 65k for the car.

The ZL-1 at AC was in the car corral and did not run thru the auction.

Golden Classics!! What a place!!

My 'friend' Nick the owner hustles me away from the poor suckers who are buying cars there every time, it's fun.

People will pay when they see nice paint, they don't do any research - amazing. I think I need to visit there again soon, they had a Yenko clone there last time. They said it was a 'Yenko, enough discussion'.

He is your friend ? My friend had to cut up a "Rust Free" 66 Nova that came from there. The guy that bought it trusted them over the phone rather than fly out and look at it.

Charley, I think Marlin and this guy are as close as you and Ign Man!!!

Marlin is very,very,very right! I have experienced first hand the crap that goes on down there. I went with a buddy of mine to verify the authenticity of a 1969 Camaro Z-28 RS that was sold(to one of his customers) at a show in Pennsylvania. After checking the car out we had a list of things wrong with this "matching # rare car". Here they are: right block, wrong date heads, wrong intake, wrong carb, wrong shifter, wrong alt, wrong fan, right trans, wrong bellhousing, and this is the greatest.... "Chambered exhaust running to a single Flowmaster muffler". I could not believe it. I have a wealthy buddy who is facinated by bright shiny objects who bought a 1967 Chevelle SS 396 from the same dealer that happened to have a MATCHING NUMBER 283 in it!!!!!!!!!!!!! No joke.
