Man, what a shame they dont offer this color! They better pull a good one out of the hat as a richer replacement for CGM...

Well, a lot of people chose him to the first one to own a ZL1, and he was. Nice job Ricky.

Lol do you think Hendrick needs driving lessons from Ron fellows??? With Jeff, Jimmy, Mark, and Dale on his team I doubt he would. Lol

lil_red_v6 · 09-24-2011, 09:47 PM

man rick is one lucky person. did you notice the underside was painted red and the engine bay was still red.

.

He could donate the driving lessons to C5 & we could raffle them off for charity.

...or half for charity & half to support the site.

The car at the Auction was not THE car (they haven't started production, yet), but a (former Red?) mule painted in the appropriate exterior color.

Good job, Mr. Hendrick! And thank God Ron Pratte's a "Ford guy" and didn't want that one, too, real bad!

These are some pictures of the Carbon Flash ZL1 from the Barrett-Jackson auction. They start from when my daughter and I first arrived at the Chevy display until it goes on auction. A very special "Thank You" goes to the entire Chevy staff on hand but especially to John Fitzpatrick and 'Chad', the most patient rep. ever. Thanks guys, you made it a very special for both of us. I tried send ing 10 pics at a time but it would not work, so I will try two at a time.
