Re: black 69 zl1
so back to the original topic, is there a chance the black 69zl1 is still out there, and maybe is in chicago area? wrecked? Or does someone know for sure they crushed the original car.

Re: black 69 zl1
Years ago I recall over hearing someone say that the black/gold was believed to be in the Chicago area. Unless that was a dream or something..

Re: black 69 zl1
there was a guy that told me about a wrecked black camaro with an aluminum block sitting in a chicago garage, and he mentioned he wanted to get the drivetrain out of it someday, it is in their family and it has been sitting for years. He made it clear the car was totaled but his other family members thought it was worth saving for the drivetain, and there was some paperwork related to the car. Maybe its his cousin's or deceased uncle, who knows, did not pry. he was not thinking or pushing missing zl1 or anything, that was me, thus the reason for the post. I just found it odd talking to a guy from southern-central IL about a wrecked black camaro being saved for some reason in a chicago garage. Yes it could be anything, the black aspect made me think of the zl1 as there were no black yenkos. maybe its a nickey car.
Thus I called up a guy that I know worked at gm on the black zl1's carb at the proving grounds and he does not remember it being detroyed at all, he said there was one car and that was it. I tried to ask a guy with the black zl1 copy at vettefest and he pretty much did not want to talk of the real car possibly existing, and he ended the conversation in 5 seconds. at this point I will just proceed to find out what that car is.

Re: black 69 zl1
Are those tires radials?.
If so, being Goodyears wouldn't they have to be early 70's or later?. And what's on the hood...a mini tach made out of a deer whistle?.  ~ Pete
