Just like this #1 car with no vinyl top?? That was this car - the second prototype is not known to exist. The vinyl top was correctly installed when Terry Gunter bought it. Floyd Garrett didn't want it when he had it restored even though it originally came with it.

Floyd has a tendency to do this and does not like vinyl tops. I restored his '67 SS427 Impala around 1980 with the original vinyl top. He bought the car and promptly re-restored it without the top, this on a 25,000 original mileage car and less then a year old restoration.

Dave, beautiful car. Should get ALOT of attention at the auction. Very cool.

We looked at this Prototype in Goodletsville,Tn.at Chevell-Abration back in June 2000 when Terry brought it and we were all..
He won a Top 3 with it.

This car has a vinyl top. It belongs/belonged to Kevin Whittaker. He is a local Chevy dealer and had it on display in his showroom. It's not there now. I don't know if it was moved or if he sold it. One of his employees told me it was one of the test cars. I have never got a chance to talk to Mr Whittaker about it.
