There was one that looked just like this sitting in AK for years unrestored. The guy would never sell it . I wonder if this is the same car ?! I think I still have pics but will have to look for them

AK = Alaska, Van

Don't think its the one youre thinking of. The bodywork is considerably different.

There are a couple/few of those near the northern part of AR, and I think theyre sYc members.

Searcy is over in chicken country...Jamie Jarvis is a Motion nut, but on the otherside of Arkansas...maybe he'll chime in?

Didn't Frankie's Deuce go to a dealer in that part of the world??

Rob I thought Jamie was in Jonesboro or Newport? Frankies Deuce went up to the Northwest Corner around Fayetteville.

Yeah, he is, Jonesboro area...for some reason I confused Searcy with the Chickendale area...

Searcy is also the home of Bill "Maverick" Golden of Little Red Wagon fame.

Would any of the 69 BM Vettes have ZL1 on the console shift plate?

-----I seem to remember that ZL1 console plates were available over the counter for several years. I know that there are parts dealers that still offer them. So,,,if you have seen one I suspect thats what you saw as I dont believe Joel ever had his hands on an original ZL1. Not that he couldnt have but its fairly well known where the few that were built have spent their time.........Bill S

That is probably the case. Unless it's an unkown ZL-1 Vette
