[DW31S]

This info. may have been posted and I missed it, and I, too kinda remember the article, but...is the ZL1 a later version, or a numbered unit from a car, or a vintage over the counter engine?
Love the car!!!

Thanks, its TOTALLY STOCK ZL-1! its amazing what these motors sound like. Very few people have ever heard one, much less drive one.

This car is killing me, please someone buy it so I can quit dreaming about it.
This has to be my favorite color combination, and the RS equipment is nice.
