This is a picture of a picture in Dick Harrell's scrap book. Probably one of the first Chevelles to hit the drag strip and it had a 427 but a 1963 Z-11 not a MK IV. The BB Chevy wasn't in production yet.

Did'nt the ZL1 get damaged a few years ago on tne way to Indy Super Chevy? If I remember correctly it caught fire on the trailer. I remember them backing it off and there was extensive fire damage. Something broke on the trailer's suspension causing the fire.

T Billigen,

Here is how the #1 ZL1 looks today, it was re-restored after the 1991 trailer fire by Bill Porterfield. Shot was taken at the 2000 Fred Gibb Memorial Car Show in LaHarpe, Il. First time Fred's racecars were ever in front of the dealership together. He sold "Little Hoss" on November 6, 1968 to make room for the #1 ZL1 delivered on December 31, 1968.
