Thanks for sharing, very cool we are sempatico in a different way, i was never in a band but had a club and booked all kinds of top acts getting to meet the music makers and help them make it happen.
Just to clarify, in the custom world ZL1 and L88 flares,are not the same, ZL1 is the name ralph eckler stuck on the so called mud flap flares, which are on very few track cars.
"ZL1 is the name ralph eckler stuck on the so called mud flap flares,"
I think that is what the PO put on my 68 convert. I looked everywhere for bonding lines and could not find any. It appears the entire front clip is one piece and each rear quarter panel is one piece. Is that how the Eckler's kits were made?
Yes ron, stunning car btw,
Ralph was a cleaver fellow, he did the flares on full fenders cut body work time and decades later some even savvy vette guys really thought it must be factory, no seams,
I still have a rear pair of the ecklers zl1s in the bat cave,
Not my car but shows ecklers idea very well,
Ps,
Ecklers did offer things like front or rear full clips with flares or even full can am panels built on, steers dad has a front clip listed over in parts...
