Do not have that one.

I do have #15, significant because it was Dick Harrells race car. It is noted "Stock #1717 Paid 5-28-1969" and has the address of his shop. I have also seen the paperwork for Grumpy's '69 Pro Camaro. Not a ZL-1 and also not free.

A word or two about Mr. Walden. When we did our ZL-1 resto in the '80s I learned he had some OE blocks available. I did not know him but called and we did a deal over the phone. For a reasonable price we received an excellent used block that needed nothing. Later on he sent an NOS amp mounting plate for us to reproduce. He was a fine man to deal with.

Don't know. Much of the ZL-1 documentation available came from COPO Connection, no longer in business.

I have the E-mail that was sent to me about 2 years ago. I'll do some digging and when I find it I'll forward it directly to you. I also have a hard copy if I don't find the E-mail. Give me a few days.

High bid of 400K. I am a little surprised that the ZL1 and the 68 yenko Camaro that Reggie had did not do better.

Do you think his name attached to a car's lineage actually seems to be lowering what people are bidding on them, lately? Whenever I see one of his cars go up for auction, they never seem to sell and people seem to be very cautious about bidding. Or are his reserves just set too high?

I was at the auction. Both cars are neat and yes they both could have more correct restorations but in the overall price to buy one, the cost to correct items isn't that big of a deal. Where else is there a red 68 RS Yenko for sale ? I just don't think this was their big musclecar auction. Lots of other type cars. White on a ZL1 also isn't probably most buyers first color choice. There are not alot of high dollar supercars bringing big money right now. I think Reggie sold 6 cars with several being done with &quot;the bid goes on&quot;
