[Kim_Howie]

Around 1980-83 in hemm. was a zl-1 vette for sale no motor do any of you remember this? I think it was down in vir.

I was told there is a blue one too.

[Pantera]

I saw the blue one when it was new. Setting in the parking lot of a auto appostery shop with the window sticker still on it. That was about a mile from two different Chev dealers here in Tulsa. Never saw it again. It could have been used by the DX racing division. They were in and out of Tulsa all the time.

I heard the blue one was destroyed?
Kevin S. has the White one in his collection.

[djunod]

How come if there where only 2, there is a yellow one, a blue one and a white one?

[jfkheat]

I had heard that there may have been as many as 6 or 7 actually built. Don't know if there is any truth to that or not.

Vette magazine used to promote the idea there was seven, made up of a couple of press cars a couple of mules and the two that were sold. Press cars and mules were not sold to public as ZL-1s last time I checked, although I have been out of the Vette hobby for around 7 years now.
If you read the article on how hard it was to actually buy Kevin's ZL-1, it reinforces the idea of there only being two.

Coupe or convertible, and what stripe pattern was it running?

[Pantera]

It was newly off the trunk and still had the window sticker. No stripes on it yet.

It was almost closing time and nobody was around. (yes that was tempting to a kid my age) It was gone later (6:30)when I left my aunts house a few blocks away. I had a '68 400hp th400 the same color being rebuilt from a wreck which is why this one caught my eye in the first place.
