Re: Question on the ZL1s at MCACN
<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: 442w30</div><div class="ubbcode-body">Another question: ZL1 #1 also was Dusk Blue, right? </div></div>
ZL-1s #1 & #2 were Dusk Blue. Gibb ordered 5 colors, 10 cars each, 6 4-speeds and 4 automatics. They are a good example of how the "COPO Body Number Theory" doesn't always apply. #1 is NOR 222002, #2 is NOR 222003. NOR 222001 [#14] was the first Gibb ZL-1 ordered [NCJ016] and is Le Mans Blue. Trivia: The #17 car is 222017; the #25 car 222025. The first ZL-1 ordered is the #3 Berger car: NOR 211785.

Re: Question on the ZL1s at MCACN
Charley rightly points out that the 2012 Corvette ended up actually being a Grand Sport Convertible 100th Anniversary Edition. We laid out the floor plan prior to the cars actually showing up and we were told it was going to be a ZR1. It was pretty fluid...

Re: Question on the ZL1s at MCACN
What was that red '68 Nova that was being wheeled in? Was it the car that some people think was campaigned by Fred Gibb Chevrolet? But then I noticed a Harrell badge on the hood . . . memory is not what it used to be, I'm afraid.

Re: Question on the ZL1s at MCACN
Not "THE" Gibb race car, but definitely one of the 50 COPO Novas with apparent Harrell provenance.
