Now that you mention it, I think you're right... in fact, was this car not at SCR5? I believe its Hugger orange, mini tubbed with widened steel wheels/dog dish caps? Anyone remember it? I think it even had a Roger Penske badge on the tailpan.

*edit... I just looked at the pics from SCR5... listed as owned by Tony Young... is this the Penske ZL1 you're referring to? Penske ZL1?

Yes, Tony was at SCR5 with his Orange ZL-1, and even entertained the natives at the BBQ with a long, smokey burnout [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/[/img].

In the mid seventies I bought a used SS big block Chevelle from the Penske dealership on Telegraph rd in Detroit. Did he have two dealerships or did he move from Pa to Detroit?

It could have been Roger P's dealership since he is into everything. He is still in the retail car business today as the owner/founder of UAG. (United Auto Group, a big coropration like AutoNation or Sonic that owns car dealerships) Last I heard they own 100-150 dealerships in the country.

I think I remember that orange car for sale here locally about 6-7 years ago, they seller had owned it since the early '70's - was asking $65k! Spoke to him a few times, interesting car, the seller had enjoyed it throughout his ownership. Car was sold new at the Penske in Philadelphia, PA.
