A quick 3 part post! Well, maybe not quick!

[82z96ss]

1. I recently saw 2 69 COPO Camaros [img]/ubbthreads/images/icons/shocked.gif[/img] , for the very first time. I honestly never thought I would feast my eyes on such a, what's the word, awesome, beautiful, majestic: I could go on but you get the idea, car. Then, because of seizing an oppurtunity of purchasing a new ZL1 [img]/ubbthreads/images/icons/grin.gif[/img] , I found out about this site. I am in awe of all the old nastalgic powerhouses that are still around today. I actually frequent this site the most now. I thank all the owners of the Supercars, whether for memories, enthustists, or money, for keeping my dreams alive. I never thought I would get an oppurtunity to see one much less own one of these Supercars. Since I put my money on a new ZL1 for now, please Supercar Owners continue the enthusiasm, hobby, or investment until I can purchase one of your Supercars to keep my son's dreams alive.

Now that I am done with the sappy stuff [img]/ubbthreads/images/icons/blush.gif[/img] , I got two ??'s.

2. The Supercar I am setting my sights on and need to know if it exists would be a 69 Camaro ZL1 # 46. Does any one know anything about it? Does it exists? Who owns it? Is it for sell by chance? etc....

3. I have a 2002 ZL1. Is it classified as a "Supercar"?Or does it have to be Stage 3 to be a Supercar? And could it be invited to the Supercar Renuion in 2003 as a Supercar?

By the way, where is the Renion and the dates, I just might show up anyway. [img]/ubbthreads/images/icons/cool.gif[/img]

Hey if any of you Supercar owners what to cut me a deal of a lifetime, I'll gladly buy one off you now [img]/ubbthreads/images/icons/wink.gif[/img] !

I am a Muscle Car Driver [img]/ubbthreads/images/icons/cool.gif[/img] living in Ricer World [img]/ubbthreads/images/icons/frown.gif[/img] Warp me back to American Grafitti [img]/ubbthreads/images/icons/grin.gif[/img] !

Anything that says ZL-1 on it is a supercar. Phase 1, phase 2, phase 3, doesn't matter. These are a tribute to the 69 ZL-1 cars. Without starting a debate [img]/ubbthreads/images/icons/grin.gif[/img] , are these welcome at the reunion? Only reason I ask is Charleys is not on the 2002 reunion list of attendees. I know it was there, I seen it. Are they only allowed when paired with a 69? Berger cars would also fall in this category. I know it opens the door to the Earnhardt cars, berger cars, Tom Henry cars, and a host of others. I understand either way. Again I am not trying to start a huge 15 page thread. It is a legit question, and I would like to know how members, and Tom stand on this situation. Maybe a GMMG show is in order, in conjunction with the supercar reunion. GMMG cars are different from other modern day muscle, because they are bought off of chevy dealers showroom floors. I will gladly organize that portion of the show if need be.

I appreciate the " not wanting another 15 page thread". My fingers are raw from typing. [img]/ubbthreads/images/icons/grin.gif[/img] Leaving Charley's car and the late model Berger car off the list was not intended to slide either. No one enjoyed Charley's car more then me. It was done to avoid a possible online debate over why they were in there. Where these cars fit into the supercar scene, I feel, is the next big debate, which I hope to avoid. "I do not have a dog in the fight." As per the reuuion, which I already have been asked about the 2002s, just was trying to decide how best to procede, with out causing a riff in our hobby. I appeciate the way you handled it in your post. You are correct. The numbers game is the problem. I have room for about 60 cars indoors. There are more 2002 ZL-1s then that. Then you add the 100+ Berger cars, and the other neat stuff Matt has done, the numbers speak for themselves. Here is what I propose,(and would LOVE to see happen) and in a way, what I tried to do a couple of times in the past. Leave the indoor show the way it is, for "supercars", era race cars , etc and displays. Outdoors, have a Musclecar Corral. with different sections, GMMG cars, Chevy Musclecars (LS-6s, Z-28s, tribute cars) and even a section for supercars/musclecars from other makes. Mike and others on this board have some non-Chevy cars I would love to see. Do it out back of the Center, where we have lots of room. Leave the back door up, to allow everyone to go from one part to another. We here at the sYc would work with who ever to pull this off. Tom

Tom, thanks for your positive reply. I am in agreement. Only thing that could be a wrench in the wheel is the outdoor aspect. Bad weather would suck. The show would be expanded, thats for sure. More people, more fun [img]/ubbthreads/images/icons/grin.gif[/img] Is there a possible second location nearby? I for one would hate to rely on weather. Tom, check your e-mail. I have another idea.

Chevy Musclecars (LS-6s, Z-28s, tribute cars)

Oh great! Now I need to start looking at trailers. Or start saving money for gas. [img]/ubbthreads/images/icons/tongue.gif[/img]
Sounds cool to me. Good idea Tom.

Hi and Welcome (82Z-96SS) I will try to answer your question as I know something about the car. The '69 #46 ZL-1 is in Good Hands. It is owned by someone that has owned more ZL-1's than anyone else. #46 is a LeMans Blue 4-speed. My Car #35 and car #46 were both returned to the factory by Fred Gibb Chevrolet. Sutliff Chevrolet in Harrisburg, Pa. bought both #46 and #35, the dealership is still in business today. Mr. Ed Cuneen's Copo Connection site would be a good place to go to for More information on Zl-1's. Mark #35
