Looks like he modified the LS6… hope he kept some of the stock parts. I’m sure that cuts out some hardcore collectors.

Either way, it’s pretty rare. From what I could find in the white book, it’s 1 of 2 400hp in that color. And 1 of 4 with the Fikse wheels.

This car appears to be lacking the stripe on the roof and a few other items, no mention of how many owners.

I question the roof stripe also. Mods are good but I would have left it original. Whats it worth? And I wonder what the sticker price was.

It sounds like it has been modified so yeah the collectors are not going to want it. I wish I knew where in Cumming it is because I'm only about 50 miles away from it. I would love to look at a ZL1 and it's in my favorite color. I wonder what it is worth.

I saw today the bid is over $45,000. Still extremely low for a ZL1.

Guys I put this car back together myself. Matt is aware of what is done to the car and he was aware when we were doing it. If you want a stock cam I have a shelf full of them and I am sure we can trade those Ported LS6 heads for stock. The car is perfect. Not sure about the stripe I am almost positive that is the way it left GMMG.

If Mike says the car is legit that's good enough for me. And that means the selling price is probably close to 6 figures.
