If that was an original zl1 the car would be worth 5-7 million

----The ZL1 is a nicely made up car. However there were more than two ZL1 69 Corvettes. The jury is out on how many, but the number is still absurdly low......Bill S

Looks like the white L78 Nova has a few 1969 features going for it.
Front bumper, high rise intake, and f&r side marker bezels, etc
to say the least. Couple of other items are out of place also.
I dont know the car but maybe its a misprint
by the magazine editors. ?

I'm thinking you are low on that number. I think Hendricks will scoop that car to go with the rest of his very rare Corvettes.

Two ZL1's produced has been the recognized number of cars by the Corvette fraternity for a number of years.....

Yep, you can see it in the pic. I would LOVE to have that car and I wouldn't care if it wasn't an original L78, I would drive it. That is a stunning Camaro...

Not much info on the cars. Some of the corvettes had information but must of the others had nothing.
I am on the fence for traveling right now anyway

Well, I might agree there may be more. The west coast had a collection ( name slips my mind right now) where there was supposed to be another. As far as I remember both the "original" cars were yellow with the front black stripe....

Where has it been shown to be incorrect? Is there a number that has been determined or speculated....

----There's a Monaco Orange convert ZL1 that's been talked about on this sight. Some question it, but personally I don't! I've been up close and personal with that one as I had a Monaco Orange L88 convert a long time ago. The original owner sold it to me to finance a disk jockey party set-up. Talk about a mistake!.....Bill S
