The story is in Hooper's book, as told by Porterfield.

Vince Piggins had the ZL-1 VIN list that ended up in Super Chevy. That's where BP got the lead on Gibb Chev. Gibb only knew about and had docs for his 50 ZL-1s.

Porterfield is who I got the majority of the original paperwork that I had for ZL-1 number 34. It was one of the cars re-invoiced to another dealer. The car has the original shipper from GM to Gibb with the options and pricing, the delivery papers and even the return papers when car was returned to Norwood Ohio Plant. The car was eventually reinvoiced and sold through Govan's Chevrolet in Baltimore MD. The shipper showed a list price over $7000. I also obtained the MSO from Maryland when the car finally sold for 4800 bucks in June of 1970. Porterfield obtained all the original paperwork on the 50 Gibb cars from Fred before he died. He also had Fred sign a letter about each individual car. He still had all the paperwork for all the Gibb ZL-1's except for the cars which the owners already obtained the paperwork from him.
