I recently read a good article on the ZL-1 COPO's that stated Fred Gibb still had a new ZL-1 left in 1972, sold it, then repossessed it in '73. Also stated many of the cars had their motors sold from them to racers, then the cars were sold with replacement engines to facilitate their sale. That helps explain why so many engines and cars survived, but few remained together. I can't remember where I saw it online, but I'm sure someone here can pipe in with its location.

The blue 4spd ZL1 is stock number 2248,which is before the silver #4 Auto ZL1 stock number 2300, so it seems like the blue 4spd car was assigned a stock number first, meaning it came in first? Also, what do you guys think about that Tach?

When I started work at International Harvester in East Moline ILL. in March of 72 worked with people who were from the Laharpe area. They used to talk about the car and the price.Almost went to see it. Wish now I had. Back then in that area they knew about Yenkos, but in that area Fred Gibb was THE man. Ken S.
