In 1984, John Schnatter sold his prized 1971 Camaro Z28 for $2800. he used the money to save his dad's tavern, knock out a broom closet in the tavern, and buy pizza making equipment. 25 years later Papa John's Pizza is a worldwide enterprise.
Recently Schnatter offered a $250,000 reward for the location of his prized Camaro. It turned up 65 miles from home, still in the state of Kentucky. It has not been reported what he actually paid to back the car itself. In addition to this on Wednesday August 26, Papa John's Pizza offered a free large one topping pizza to all Camaro owners who drove their cars to the stores.
With the unknown price of the car, the free pizzas for a day, and $250K reward I can't help but wonder just how much did this car cost him exactly? I guess we'll never know.
