I saw a recreation of that car at the National Corvette Museum in Bowling Green; would that have been the same car or are there more than one recreation of this Corvette?

This is the only "sanctioned" re-creation that I am aware of.

To give you an idea of the level of detail they went into: the original donor vehicle was yellow (or white, maybe) and painted orange over that.

When they sourced a vehicle for the re-creation they found a car the same color as the original and painted it orange, in the same way.
