The white one has been in Kevin Suydam's collection for a number of years. I thought there was a rumor of an orange one which would make three....but I can't be certain. The yellow one was in a collection in Florida and I'm not sure if it still is?

I don't believe Reggie Jackson ever had a ZL1 Corvette? Camaros yes, Vette no?

The yellow car was sold throught Hechler Chevrolet here in richmond Va....was owned by Zip Corvette and sold to a guy who turned out to be a drug dealer in Fla. The car was seized and sold to the current owner.. a Corvette dealer in Fla. My understanding is the original motor is in the car.
