Here's a link to the 25 Porsche 917's built for endurance racing homologation in 1969.

Chevrolet did the same thing with the ZL1 Corvette.
The 25 homologation ZL1 Corvettes (I assume) went to race teams. But the homologation process of 1969 did happen and the ZL1 Corvette was homologated and that required paperwork and inspection of the 25 cars.
I don't think the 25 homologation ZL1 Corvettes had headers or roll cages but they were very lean cars. They had riveted fender flares.
The white Duntov ZL1 that can be found at one of the links is a Motion ZL1 converted by Duntov to the homologation specs. It is a perfect development using the homologated parts.
The Greenwood ZL1 Corvette was an L88 converted to the ZL1 engine.
Here's another Porsche 917 link. It simply helps explain the homologation process of 1969:
