I used to own the yellow one. I think that is the only Camaro. I had traded it toward ZL1 # 18.

Charley,
What prompted you to let this one leave your stable (other than the obvious trade up)? I would think an (only remaining or one of one) Hurst Sunshine Z28 Camaro like this would become almost a permanent fixture in your collection. Would this car still be considered extremely valuable or one of those "rare but not highly sought after" cars?

I don't know that they built more than one Camaro. I know in a book they mention 3 being built but I have never seen any documentation or any other cars. At the time I traded it I had never owned a ZL1 and had a chance to trade into one. I didn't have the cash to buy one outright. The Hurst car was also very rusty. Where the leaf springs attach forward of the diff the body panels are about 3 layers thick and they were completely swollen and rotted. Tough to fix correctly short of buying another car for body parts. Had half 1/4 panels glassed in etc. Wish I had it back now that it is restored.

Aw yes, now I understand. Can't say as I blame you there.
