The 1969 ZL1 Corvette is not a SUPERCAR by definition, its only another square port car that was available to the mass public that wasn't ordered through COPO.
I hope this helps.

I think it's been made quite clear to those of us who don't have a supercar by this sites definition.

Imagine going to a show with your ZL1 corvette and trying to park in the section that is marked "supercars", only to be told youd have to park in the 1968 to 1972 corvette section because the last spot was taken by a 69 LM1 camaro paint delete car.

I think the last spot would probably be for one of your rare supercamels.

Didn't those rare supercamels come with the "double hump" heads?...

Let me follow this then would my 70 and 71 Impala 4 doors complete with their hand written COPO paperwork for Police job, one off color/int Red/Gold for the 70, 350 Hp engine, special gauges, HD cooling, and susp qualify? Then would the 71 with its blank paint Hd cooling special double pulley everything, HD wagon susp under a 4dr ,BB police Hd valvetrain and Nodular manifolds qualify as well. Always wanted to know where these fell into things. Just curious, They can both hang with the Supercars on the Top End !!!
