Some cars are powerful. Others are iconic. But a rare few become living legacies — and Cooksey #001 is one of them.

This 2006 Corvette Z06 isn’t just a beast under the hood — it’s a historical marker in the world of Corvette performance and pride. Hand-signed by Wil Cooksey, the revered Bowling Green Assembly Plant Manager, this Z06 bears the distinction of being the very first car he personally numbered and autographed: 001.

But this isn’t just about ink on a dashboard. It’s about the man behind the signature — and the car that carries his legacy forward.

As you step into the image, you’ll see more than chrome and carbon fiber. You’ll notice the signed dash, the 427 LS7 engine, and the subtle details that make this car a collector’s dream. From the signature inside the engine bay to the pristine cockpit — every inch of this Z06 tells a story of power, pride, and performance.

This piece was photographed with intention, using light painting techniques to honor every angle of the machine — from the aggressive stance to the heart-pounding horsepower that made the C6 Z06 a modern legend.
