1970 LS/6 Chevelle with 24 original miles

[JEFF GHILANI]

I am replying to clear up any confussion regarding this 24 mile LS6 Chevelle. I am probably the last person to have seen the car in person besides the current owner. I went to see the car about 6 months ago. My opinion can be relied upon with great confidence since I am a very avid student of the '70 LS6 Chevelle. My strengths in this field center around correctness and originality down to details that most people regard as ridiculous.
About the car, it is undoubtedly the very best low mileage LS6 in the world. From the limited amount of time I spent examining the car, I could see that it is surprisingly untouched and unfluffed. Very abnormal for a car like this. The paint is very nice and fully original. The engine compartment and interior have to be seen to be appreciated; they are incredible. They have the minor imperfections that one would expect from a car that was built in a few hours. The smog system is indeed missing right now, but I laugh at anybody who criticizes the car for this. Its not like there is any other LS6 to compete with this car. The proper smog parts (NOS and early take-off) are all that is needed to make the car complete. I have seen Bill Bonham's car several times in person and I love it. But the 24 mile car is brand new. If I had the money, I would buy it and never sell it. Not because I think it's the best investment in the world, but because it is the best Chevelle in the world. There has been talk of the possibility that someone in the past drove the car a little with the speedo cable disconnected. I knew this when I went to see the car and all I can say is that it is possible, but it would have to have been very very minimal. Everything is still brand new. The owner keeps it clean and properly stored and is an avid low mileage car collector who is excellent at the art of recognizing the difference between low mileage and restoration.
Another neat thing about the car is the very rare General 700 tires that it came with. Most Chevelle "experts" don't even know about these tires. There is no criticizing a car like this. It is truly one of a kind and should only be bought by someone who can appreciate it for what it is and leave it untouched.
