North American Operations? They use NAO in GM for that designation.

So based on my records your car is Red/Red with single painted top. Otherwise all typical US non-CA car options. My guess is an Executive's Company Car. So one of 3 Red/Red/ Single painted roof cars for 95.

Can I get a copy of the list of cars and last known whereabouts, etc. I am searching for the right ZR-1 and might end up having to reach out to owners to find the one I want.

Phil,

You may be thinking of the Suburban Auto Group located in Troy, MI.

It's odd an executive would get a painted roof only car
