Around 77-79 at the local cruise spot a blue LT-1 would come in, I knew the hood was different, I could hear the solid lifters, I honestly do not recall the year but recall how other people at the cruise would boast that this is the mouse that roars, it will beat the big block of 19XX , I do not know if that was the case but it sounded good....
While I have always been a bb person one of the vettes that never left my mind because of all the mystic it had for me was the LT-1.
For me these are almost like Bigfoot or Nessie......
There is an LT-1, and a BB out in the garage. I had to have both!

I'm not sure if this owner visits this forum or not.

I had one as well, red, but was originally white. 4:11 gears also. Heads were milled a lot and had aftermarket pistons and cam. It ran 12.60 thru the mufflers on Radial T/As. I had figured due to the GM strike in 70, that your Vette is one of the rarest out there. I should have kept mine. Have any photos?
The 70 LT-1 convertible is without a doubt one of the most sought after vettes of all time!

Gotta love them! What's the correct lettering for the first gen? ZR1 or ZR-1?
Thanks for posting

Here is the '71 convertible I used to own (don't chew me out for posting). Had it for 13 years. It was stock and pretty original- just the smog stuff and the T.I. distributor were missing. Sold it in 2006.
I have 71 confirmed through GM Canada. Missing it's original block but has an LT-1 engine under the hood (somewhere there's Z28 missing it's engine). Originally white with a tan interior now orange with a black interior. Lots of work done and a lot more to go. M21, tilt/telescopic, PS, PB.
I have a March built 70 LT-1 conv. Donyybrook with saddle, I also have an April built 1971 LT-1 conv. Warbonnet with saddle. Both have the original engines, current the 71's engine is removed for overhaul.
