Default ZL1 - COPO Ebay Ad

I am always interested in finding out as much as possible on the COPO-ZL1 cars, especially GM Inter organizational memorandums. A guy on eBay is selling a book he claims he has copyrighted that has a wealth of information. One thing I did notice wrong in his ad, was the price he states the first two ZL1's arrived at Gibb Chevrolet were invoiced at $4160. (unless he if referring to the motor?). Also, he mentions a ZL-2? Anyone know what a ZL-2 is? I'm not bashing him or his book, but instead how many of you are curious to see it as I am?
HERE IS THE LINK:
ZL1 COPO INFO.

Looks like a lot of the stuff in Cunneen's materials doesn't it?

Charley Lillard, did you ever keep a copy of that REAL ZL-1 book you had and sold on eBay a while back?

I don't remember if I made a copy or not. ZL2 is the cowl induction hood.

I have a copy of the list of VIN's, sent to me by Chevrolet back in '94, along with what looks like a photocopy of most of Ed's book.
The copy of the Yenko invoice is in Ed's book.

It appears that all of this information was from prevoius versions of my "copyrighted" book, HIGH PERFORMANCE COPO'S, which is still available on a CD for under $25.

No disrespect intended, Ed, but I called Chevrolet's 800 number in 1994, asked for information that they might have about COPO Camaros, and what they sent me was pretty much a photocopy of your book.
I also bought your "COPO Connection Source Book" in '94, sixth edition, and I have not violated any copyright because I have only quoted you, and not posted anything from your book. Go after Chevrolet or the guy with the auction on eBay.

WOW, thanks Ed, I will be at your web site to buy the COPO CD, and buy some raffle tickets at the same time.

Andy,
My response was toward the Ebay ad, not you. Chevrolet did mail out a copy of my book for a while until I found out about it and asked them not to. You should see the response I got back from the Ebay seller!
