The hoopla and reality of the z16

[Xplantdad]

Bobby,

Here you go...some pictures of a Z-16 Chevelle. Pictures are from Micky Hales website and the car is from the Dick Bridges collection.

That last Z16 picture is at Dicks showroom.I have that Magazine issue here featuring his collection,as well as He & Micky.Those two are Both Top Notch!
I drool over not only the cars,but the Memorablia Dick acquired hanging on the back walls.
Ford-Chrysler-Chevrolet,all incredible pieces.
I recently called Mr.Bridges up,& was saddened to hear he has long sold everything.I asked about the Chevrolet Dealership Memorabilia,but that to is history too.
All broken up to seperate collectors.
He said today,he actually regretted letting all those items go.
He honestly thought he was selling at the high water mark,& had no idea prices back then were just begining...

Thanks for the pictures of the Z16,that is a beautiful car.The Chevelle I looked at was pretty nice car it was nothing like the one in these pictures.After seeing the car and what you guys had described i figured it was not a real Z16 car.Maybe the guy that sold him the car that put Z16 in his head had told him he replicated a Z16 or something,I am not sure what the deal was or what was said.Although a nice car but not near as nice as the one you guys posted the pictures of.I am going to try to find a little more about the car,just want to see that trim tag on it.Thanks for all the information.
