When Fred Gibb gifted the docs to BP, he created a letter for each ZL-1 Camaro and L78 Nova VIN on Gibb Chev letterhead and Fred Gibb signed them. The intention was to market the docs as a way for BP to offset the considerable cost of restoring the #1 ZL-1 to original race trim, twice. Some were sold and I don't believe he always kept copies.

I recall that the family requested the return of certain docs and BP complied. Maybe the GMAC dealer invoices? Didn't see any.

By that time [1989] many of the cars were long gone or unknown. Those letters are probably still there, thought I did see them.

Only 11 Novas and 32 [Gibb] ZL-1s are listed as active on the Supercar registry. Some of the unknown cars undoubtedly exist. The days of $5 DMV title searches are over. Only way they will turn up is if their owners want them to.
