Found this in Chevrolet High Performance July 1988.
C.K.Spurlock was the owner.

Thanks Bruce ! When reading the article I got the impression that it was a L78 car.

Cool topic!.

So where'd the 'less than 100 Z11 L78's" production # in the Spurlock article originate from?.

While we're at it, what's the real story on L78 Z10 coupes?.
Does anyone know if any were actually built and/or if Vin 124379N633025 advertised online is a genuine L78 Z10 car?.
It kinda' reads like it's a documented Z10 car but w/ the L78 added?.

Anders...That's my car! I have a couple of magazines that it was featured in when Spurlock owned it but have never seen that article/photo. Would you consider emailing me the complete article??

So are there actual documented L-89 Indy's out there?? That would defineitely be cooler than an L-78 car!!!

Agree, but lets not forget about the 69 L89 Z11
There out there!

We know of at least 2!

2 L89 Z11's were built for the race in 69.

Both had cast iron heads to improve reliability to maintain pace speeds of 130 mph.

Mario Andretti was givin a Z11 after he won the race.I think the whereabouts of this particular car in unknown.

I know of two also...
One is an unrestored survivor the other is a fully restored car.

The survivor is a Z11 L89 with JL8 set up...same owner since 1982.

Andretti's car left the country sometime in the 80s. To my knowledge, nobody has heard of or seen the car since.

It can't get much better than a '69 Pace Car with L89 and JL8. That would pretty much be close to the ultimate Camaro convertible.
I still miss my Pace Car and would love another.

Interestingly, Spurlock is involved with that Z10. I've seen the docs on it and I don't think it was originally a L78. Maybe a L35...

There are some real L78 Z10's out there.

What's a Z-10 L-78 worth? I know where one is and can be bought but have no clue on it's value.

It's worth what the buyer will pay!

$325,000?
