Default Z06 on NatGeo 'Ultimate Factories'

I know it's sort of old (original air date 11-2007) but it will be on the National Geographic channel tomorrow night at 3 AM. Sunday night/Monday morning. It's still always good to see, no matter how many times it's on.

No I did not..wow. Does that mean that the 07 came with the early ZR1 hood? I mean there's no vision window.
