ZL-1 Lustine Camaro

[Rowdy Rat]

Lustine Chevrolet is located just north of Washington D.C. in Hyattsville, MD and are presently still doing business under the same name. They were quite active in high performance car sales back in the 1960s-70s (my 1969 L-78 Nova was sold new at Lustine).

The records that Ed has posted on his website show that at least two ZL-1s went to Lustine - a Lemans Blue four speed car and a Fathom green four speed car. Tough to tell what the original color of the car in the photo was... It appears to have a two tone paint scheme and may have been completely repainted.

Keith,

When I spoke to Ed Hedrick several years ago, he told me that he ran his L-72 Camaro in "E" Stock as a four speed car and "D" Stock Automatic when they switched over to the THM 400. I couldn't tell you what class they ran in SS, but perhaps someone else here can.

Regards,

Stan Falenski
