Re: ZL1 #51 at Barrett-Jackson

Charley,

This is interesting! Can you answer a few questios for me?

Roughly, how badly was the block damaged? Any missing pieces?

Who saves, or for that matter, buys a blown ZL-1 block?
Was it retained for sentimental value, or possible future $$ value?

I'm asking because I read somewhere that GM cast maybe 50
or so additional ZL-1 blocks back in the day. Almost
every one I have seen from that period had been badly damaged. Is that the norm for these engines?

Steve
