Charley that is a really cool pic. When you say it was sold new that way do you mean done by the dealer of factory?

Who owns the car now?

Re: ZL1 57
 

Motown...the orig. owner gave the photo to the second owner. The second owner is a Member of this Board. He Forwarded the photo to the Current owner. Question is..Since this car was supposedly sold new with these dealer installed stripes.. Who would put them back on ?

Re: ZL1 57
 

Charley,
Which dealer put these stripes on? Was it the dealers idea or the buyer? From a purest standpoint I suppose the car should have them, just as a Yenko or Baldwin stripe, I guess this would be a case of personal preference, I dont think I care for them much, but thinking back to when I saw the first Yenko, I didnt like those stripes then, but I do now...I guess anything can grow on you. There is no question though, with them installed it would make it a one of a kind ZL-1. Didnt one of the other ZL-1's have the pinstipes on one side and not the other originally? Those stripes on this car almost look like something Berger would have used.

Charlie- Curious, do you know the date on the photo?

Re: ZL1 57
 

I don't know a date. I assume it was Brewers in KY that put them on. Seeing those stripes makes me really appreaciate what Yenko and Motion did........

Re: ZL1 57
 

Isn't there a unrestored blue ZL1 RS that has some dealer made stripes on it? I think they said the stripes and 427 Impala emblems were dealer installed? I have an old article on it somewhere in my land fill pile of magazines.

Re: ZL1 57
 

The Blue RS ZL1 is currently sitting right next to the Yellow one and yes it also has Dealer installed Stripes.

Re: ZL1 57
 

are they both from same dealer?
