Default Re: I need help to authenticate a LS6 Convertible

I can't wait till the day that "people loose interest" in muscle cars. I actually believe this could happen to a certain extent. In 20-30 years I wonder if people will care if a car is #'s matching or if has the correct style broach marks, or if the widget spring is the correct color. I think future generations will be more interested in the look or the general "attitude" of a bad ass American Muscle Car. All I know is I will be lined up waiting to get another supercar if the values go down!

I drove my Deuce EVERYWHERE and ANYWHERE in Chicago. I had fun with it and did not worry about what it was worth. I parked it in any parking lot, drove it in all forms of city traffic, and beat the piss out of it without worry. I terrorized the streets of Chicago and the 1320 of Gateway International with that car even though I knew the car was worth $150,000 and loved every minute of it!

For now all I have is the memories of the actual experience of being a supercar owner. I will NEVER forget blasting down the track at Gateway International with my Yenko Deuce as long as I live. For those brief few minutes in my life I did not care about the values, risks, or politics surrounding supercar ownership. All that mattered was banging them gears as hard as I could, just short of breaking the stick to make sure I won! Being handed the time slip with your new best time was all worth it. THAT is what it should be all about.
