Bob Dance is listed as salesman on both my 69 ZL-1 #64 Hugger Orange and also my Cortez Silver COPO 4 speed. Both sold new to Bill Turner, (Turners High Performance) of Ft Meyers FL. Both have Endura Bumpers and Rosewood steering wheels, Bob had great taste in Camaros! He will be remembered.

Yes he did, I think he might have had a hand in these 2 coming from my lifelong hometown Cocoa,Fla. Ironic but I know of a mechanic that wrenched on a few of these ,he is still around and rumor has it he took a box of service records from the dealer when they shut down and has them to this day in his attic.

There are at least 2 L-72 cars from this dealer, with consecutive vins no less.
This car was open trailered from Georgia to the SCRXI.


Coincedently, this car was built 29 cars ahead of mine.
