-----After asking a few old timers the concensus is that the ZO6 brake package was never offered over the counter as a unit,only as seperate pieces. However,packages were probably given away in small numbers to those who were well connected!...........Bill S

First off, if Dave Mershon is not keeping the car in his personal collection that should tell you something about the car. The Z06 coupe should bring $125K mint, a Z06 convertible should bring around $150K. Again, like any collector car, if it does not have documents, it is a tough call to make. I think this car is not an original Z06. My .02.

------Dan,

------No big deal but its Dan Mershon,not Dave.
------Also,the price of a coupe varies greatly depending on the size of the tank. For what should be obvious reasons there never was a big(36 gal)tank factory installed in a roadster!......Bill S

This is true. I thought his name was Dave not Dan. Only 36 gallon Fuel Tank cars should bring such money. I have only seen a hand full of Z06 cars, by no means am I an expert.

-----While talking to my buddy,Jim Gessner tonight I found that Dick Guldstrand was given two sets of complete ZO6 brakes for the 63 and the 64 that he ran back then by GM. Of course by the time 65 rolled in there was no more need for any ZO6 parts as Dick moved forward to the disc-brake age..........Bill S
