After the 1971 season, Dick took the car to a race shop to have the rear wheel wells slightly enlarged. The shop removed the entire trunk floor in error. Since he could not race the ZL1 in this condition, he found another body and pieced the car back together again. It now features a non-OEM Trim Tag.

It is a rebody.
According to Chuck the ONLY part of the auction car that really was part of ZL1 #27 is the vin plate (IIRC).

It is a rebody of a rebody. Vin tag is all that came from the car. Chuck rebodied it and then the next guy that bought it from Chucks buyer simply got the vin tag from the body that Chuck put it on and put it on yet another body.

So that probably (hopefully...) makes it 'the only one known to exist'. Think of the marketing possibilities
