COPO PETE · #1 02-11-2003, 04:09 PM

Just got off the phone with George Zappora from GM of Canada. I've heard rumours from what I think is a reliable sourse that there was in fact two (2) ZL-1 cars that came to Canada!
I never really talked about it much, but the car is suppose to be alive and well. I just asked George if he ever documented a ZL-1 Camaro and he replied "Yes.... both of them!" The plot thickens!!!!

Pete,
There is a very highly optioned <font color="blue"> Canadian Documented ZL1 </font> under Restoration here in the Burbs, which belongs to a club/site member [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img]

Steve;
Are you referring to Ed's brother in law's Lemans Blue RS?

Pete,
Things are not always as they seem, there are probebly more then one of the so called missing or destroyed ZL-1's out there that simply have not been titled or registered in 20 to 30 years, there could be a multitude of reasons why the owner or owners have not come forward to tell the world.
