Thank god this was Georgia otherwise this car would have been a pile of dust. This car is amazingly extremely solid with slight decay on drivers quarter and one tiny pin hole below rear seat which was very typical on convertibles.

Found a build sheet today on top of tank. Not in great shape and missing a bunch of pieces but a lot of the important stuff is there including the special paint, AU emissions tag (LS5 only) RU rear code (LS5 3.31:1) D80, selling dealer etc.

The owner of Everett remembers the car and they believe it may have been his dealer demo car in 1971.

I may consider selling car. The owner of Everett Chevrolet has shown interest but no commitment yet.

If you are interested please PM to discuss car. I am not certain I will sell it yet but open to consideration.
