Pete,
Do tell, what is it you found? (as if I didn't know). Have you found out what paint code is "B"?

[Chevy454]

I think that's the call out for the vinyl top...

Pete, my records indicate 1st prototype ZL1, 10A car(Oct 68). VIN 513787. --PNT. Black w/Gold stripes RS SS.

Leonard, I didn't know the VIN was known for the black and gold Engineering ZL-1 car. Is the other black and gold cars vin known?

[Leonard]

I have no info on the other Black and Gold ZL1.

The original source for that VIN was an ancient COPO Connection Newsletter.

I have a copy of the cover letter from GM Styling to the Norwood Plant Manager when the order was placed for the ZL-1 show car and is is dated March 1969. Could not be 513787.
