Default Re: Missing ZL-1's

Thanks Joe, I dont put too much information up on the web. I did talk with Gib about this car and others. I'm saving all of it for my Corvette L-88 book that should go to press Spring/Summer 2002. By the way, the color was severly faded on the print that I had of that car. It was scanned from an original print that I got from my contacts at Chevrolet.

Here are a few pictures from the 1970 Detroit auto show,and the National Sales Convention.The Corvette has side pipes here,not sure if it is a ZL-1.
The B/G 69 Camaro will not show clearly here.But there is a Blue 69 Z-28 and a hint of a Red Camaro in the left corner.

Thanks for posting the pictures, Mr70. Sorry to get off of the subject here, but do you have any pictures from other auto shows? I have been looking for pictures taken at the 1968 Chicago auto show. I have read that a Nova hardtop was displayed at that show. It was planned for production in 1969, but was never produced.

I have pictures from that 1968 Auto Show in Chicago.No angles with a Nova in them though.Not saying it wasn't there,just that my pictures don't show it.
The 1969 Chicago Auto Show does have a Corvette,Camaro SS,and Nova SS all in a circle.

Thanks for looking. I have been wondering about the Nova hardtop since I saw it mentioned in the June and July 1968 issues of Motor Trend. It will have to remain a mystery for now.
