Mitchell and Duntov's collaboration 1967 Astro I Corvette Concept. He loved those wheels. And the calendar car just seems to have other "Mitchell" touches. The chin spoiler, the European mirrors. It just looks like something he would have had the GM Colour & Design shop whip up for him. Hence the GM Archives photo credit.

I always loved this photo, I scanned it from Popular Hot Rodding.
It was published in Oct 1969, had all the new cars in it for '70. All photos were factory photos. Is that taken at the proving grounds? Those wheels look cool.

OEM / assembly line stripes DID NOT "spill" onto the deck lid ... it also appears to have a wrap around front spoiler on it as well, again MAYBE from an Engineering mule standpoint BUT the height of the car makes me think poorly done period custom, hard to believe this is an Engineering test mule car now, I have not seen them jack suspensions up like that ...

Guys, isn't this the black and gold mock up of a production ZL-1 that Chevrolet was considering marketing? I remember seeing this picture before as well as an awesome clone of this car that someone built.
