1 of 1 Muscle Cars - New Book
 

Introducing the cover art for my new book. The book will be out in September.
I'd love to hear your criteria for what you would call a car 1 of 1.

Tough call criteria-wise ... one-of-one w/green radio buttons might have a cool story as to why those radio buttons "had" to be green and what strings had to be pulled to make that happen ...?

I can't wait to get this book Wes!

To me a 1 of 1 car needs to be limited to the engine/transmission and or the interior/exterior color combinations i.e. the blue and silver RS 1969 ZL1 Camaro's are 1 of 1 cars. I've seen a lot of Marti Reports that have a car listed as 1 of 1 but if it's because its the only red car that was made with blue interior, am/fm radio, front floor mats and rear window defrost I'm not very interested. Cool car but not really 1 of 1 to me.

Some form of documentation is needed for a car to be true 1 of 1 in my opinion. I "think" my old COPO Camaro is 1 of 1 car since it was the only Hugger Orange/orange houndstooth 4 speed COPO known to exist but I can't prove it so it doesn't really count since we all know what my opinion is worth(not much).

IMO the criteria should be interior/exterior color combo and driveline variations.

May be special paint, many options or lack of ( no radio , heater, ect ). The higher hp model the more appreciation & value with original documents. I have been restoring a GM oshawa documented 70 nova ss 1001PA no radio ,muncie , bench still in pieces. Imo don’t think there's a twin to it. Rare yes unicorn no as I'm no player in $6 digit muscle cars. I will be looking forward to some of the 1 of 1 's in your book. Thanks Marc.

Is this car in your book?

1 of 1 in general would be better and would be more inclusive instead of exclusive. A Big 3 car with more options makes it closer to 1 of 1 including the drivetrain. Does a 69 Camaro Pacer with a rear window defogger qualify? My friend had one. I’ve seen enough muscle cars that I’m not excited, and I like the oddball stuff because it’s never seen. However, best of luck with your book.

I’m sure the 1968 Z28 convertible would qualify.

I see the Hurst Sunshine Special I used to own. I assume the 67 GT500 Super Snake is also in there.

Before he sold it recently,and because he was the only original owner who still had possession of it,would Ken Barnhardts 1969 ZL-1 Camaro be considered a 1 of 1 for this book?
