One of the 1969 black with gold stripe ZL1 cars showed up at a press preview of the 1970 Cars together with a ZL1 1969 Corvette. The press was allowed to drive them. I guess Chevy wanted to show them off since the 1970 Corvette and Camaro were released late so they were not at this press preview. The COPO number on the 2 black and gold cars was 9567 and they had ZL1 emblems. From what I read some of the prototype cars were converted back to stock engines and sold to GM employees so maybe one will show up some day.
