Re: Missing ZL-1's
JoeC
I have accumulated some incredible pictures of the 1970 Chevrolet National Sales Convention and Detroit Auto show held at Cobo hall in Detroit. The designer of the Space Age Theme floor settings that year was so proud of his designs,he walked around and took photos of all the cars in their glory.This was the night before with no people present with the cars. There is a Black SS Chevelle on the floor,as well as 69 Camaros and Corvettes fitting the description you describe. I see the Black 69 Camaro in the background.I have press release papers for these shows,but no mention of ZL-1's. All in color and very detailed.

Re: Missing ZL-1's
How can the cars with old registrations just dissapear? I am sure each one has been researched thouroughly. I mean if it goes from person to person on the reg. or title doesnt someone have to be the last one to have owned the car and should know of it's location?
Or is this reality and it just aint that easy????

Re: Missing ZL-1's
Mr70,is there anyway you can post the picture of the black camaro? The two photos I have are the photo in the camaro book by Micheal Lamm and a small one in Dec 86 Car Craft. It's the article with Lillard's #3 car when Porterfield owned it.

Re: Missing ZL-1's
Insane:
The problem is that a lot of cars were race cars and thus never registered or title after a certain point, whether it was early in the cars life, or later when the car was just another worn out Camaro. Another problem with the ZL-1s is their lack of exterior ID...most people never knew what they were looking at. Plus, it's been 30+ years...that's a LOT of water under the bridge!

Re: Missing ZL-1's
At the press preview....The ZL1 Corvette was Monaco Orange and the road racing one was a light color with a wide dark stripe down center maybe white with a blue stripe. Here is an article on the ZL1 drag car.
