November '06 Feature Car

[Chevy454]

I agree, Stu...when I think of *dream* cars that got me hooked in this hobby years ago, this very car (#55) and the #3 ZL-1 are it...rarity and desirability out the whazoo...I would pick either of those 2 over any other car(s) on the planet, but between #55 and #3, well, the Lemans blue and Rally sport options would probably seal the deal...now, y'all don't laugh at me, but I *literally* got chills when I saw this car for the first time at SCR9...

I first saw this car at the Peterson Museum in '96. It was stashed behind a Boss 429 Mustang, and to the casual visiter it looked like any other Camaro, except for the tiny little placque next to the Mustang that said it was a ZL1 with 7000 original unrestored miles. (The plaque was a good 30 feet from the car).
I thought to myself, why even put it on display there? The exhibit gave more info about the HemiCuda.
When I got home and looked it up on my list, it was obvious what a special car this was, and how lucky I was to have even seen it.
Looking at it up close at SCR9 was a rare privledge, and I can't even think of saying , because it's too special for me to ever dream of owning.
A true piece of American history, and thanks for sharing it with us.
