Except the 50 years later, and still none WITH PROOF have EVER surfaced? Not likely. The car in question is a fraud. Someone very knowledgeable has all the info on this car, and there are many concerns as to the authenticity of the car. As I have said over and over again, "show us some REAL documentation to prove the authenticity of it's existence, and we can put this whole situation to bed."

Donny, if you read my post, I said; Quote:

I have no documentation nor do I have stories of any particular combo



I wasn't referring to the car in question, nor was I saying any such car was built, in fact I specifically was quoting numbers from 1971 in reference to what Richard said about LS6 Chevelles of that year and just pointing out the discrepancies in their own record keeping, and the fact that leaves the door open for some possible unknown/undocumented cars to have existed. No claim that an particular car exists. Just that with over 5000 engines and transmissions that were coded for assembly line installation are basically unaccounted for and we really don't what they were or where they went. You don't know and neither do I. In fact obviously, neither does GM at this point.



True, but this subject has been broached many, many time over the years. The L72 is not listed as an option on any ordering info in 1967, none have surfaced, and there are only 17 engines unaccounted for in this instance, not 5000. The original post was in fact about this car, and the car is in fact a complete FRAUD! It was a turbo 400 car as documented by the second set of trans mounts on the frame, the trans code on the cowl tag, it is NOT and SS427 car (no 4D, and it should be there from that plant), the tach face has been altered, the block casting number has been altered, plus many other items which I won't get into here. To leave this subject untouched and say " it could exist" is reckless at best. This car is NOT real in any sense of the word, is a total fabrication, and should not be the "what if" poster child of "it could exist". Those of us who own, and are really into these cars are in fact protective of the info and the righteous cars out there, and must react to these blatant frauds created by someone when they are presented as "the real deal". This car will get sold for crazy-carzy money if someone buys the "urban legend" of it's existence and thinks that this ONE is the missing link.
