Makes sense...Alan Green got 2 of the first ones produced and Ron Tonkin Chevrolet in Portland OR. Got the next 2 in January of 67 IIRC.

Alan Green got three of the first 25 built and Ron Tonkin got one from that group. Tonkin did get a second one for the race team they were intending to run in Trans-Am but it came a little later. Tonkin contracted with Dana Chevrolet and Dick Guldstrand to race prepare the cars for them. Even though Tonkin and Alan Green were on the West Coast, the earliest Zs came from Norwood, OH, not Van Nuys, CA.
