Not mine, don't know anything about it, just stumbled over it on a routine search, thought I'd post it here in case anyone might be interested.

I hope someone buys it to restore, it would be a shame to see it get parted out.

Nice car and description. I would like to see a better pic of the engine stamping without the head gasket covering the adjacent area.

This LS6 has alot of potential, and I hope it will be saved and preserved. Great description of the car and what parts he does have for a restoration. Even though it sounds like it is a matching #'s LS6, I would definately look it over in person before I bid on it.
Too bad the block has been decked some. The seller sounds like he is half-way honest, which is refreshing now days.

This is the only part of the car's description I didn't like.

"Protect-O-Plate long gone but I have a blank NOS (not repro) plate and NOS tape for it. You'll have to get it stamped."

tony, i do not have a problem with a reproduction pop for a real documented car. Documenting a fake car with a reproduction pop is NOT OK, is my opinion. Roger

I understand what you are saying, and respect your opinion. Wether it is a documented car or not, I think it is unethical to restamp POP's and cowl-tags, just not my thing.

When he states that he has a reproduction POP that can be stamped, then I think it gives people who are not well educated in the musclecar hobby the impression that it is ok to restamp tags, POP's.

Hmmmmm...........Anyone know if GM changed the block stamp fonts for 1970, as compared to original 1968 & 1969 fonts??

Just curious as they differ from 2 of my original blocks.

That VIN stamp on his engine & trans looks typical in size & location for Kansas Leeds plant.
They were unique.

Thanks MR70. Cooool car. Amazing so much of it is still together (with the car). Too many solid lifter (any BBC for that matter) were easily scattered from heavy right feet. LOL

Very

Project that I hope it rings the bell.
Just a pet peeve of mine,is the phrase "Stripe delete".
This would bring one to think it was originally built with them.
How can you delete something that it never had in the first place.

If anyone is interested,I am available to go look at this Chevelle for them.
