mr70,
Do you know the asking prices for the L78 rags?

Also, what is the 'official' estimate for total LS6 Rag top production?

Stefano
The Blk/Blk L-78 Convert.was bought buy Joe Rivera in Berwyn Il. then he took it to Barret/Jackson auction in Az. a few months ago and wanted 85K.It didn't get it there,so it went to Fla. and was for sale at Golden Classisc for 80K I believe.
Legendary Motor car will not return my requests for asking price of this Chevelle now.

Chuck Hanson was asking 80K for his Red/Red in 2000 and then at Floyds last year.Not sure of it's final selling price,but Bill had to have it.

I can only guesstimate as to the number of 1970 Chevelle LS-6 Convertibles made.
There are no documented numbers of how many Chevrolet built from the Assembly line.

why is bill selling his cars? he just got the zl1 from me. it is a very nice car, owned by randy miller before me and ed cuneen before randy, originally from iowa via the west coast, car #13. it would make a nice addition to anyones collection.

Kevin, does the car have the original drive train? Who did the resto?

Nice list of cars. Wish I was in a position to acquire at least 1 of those cars but I'm struggling to get my JL8 finished. I can't complain though, I never expected to find myself with a car like I have so I feel I'm pretty lucky.

tom,
the car is not numbers matching, but, so few zl1's are. the car was very nicely done. bill is a great guy and rich is representing a great group of cars. bill is very busy, i'm sure he just doesn't have the time. i wish i had never sold the car, but, was offered a great stock option plan matching one to one and it was the easiest car to sell that freed up the most cash. the car was restored by randy miller which does very nice work. i have an ls6 and 69 yenko nova that i bought from randy as well. rich knows the cars well as he helped bill put his collection together.i am sure they will be very fair on the cars. like stefano said what about a group price, who could stand it, not me. i'll give to rich he knows where the cars are.

Sorry to tag on so late but what happened to the 1970 Chevelle L78 convertible in California for sale last year. Red, black stripes, black top and buckets. Owned by Jim. Did he move the car??? PS did anyone go to the ACES Show in Tennessee this weekend?

**9566 BA** · #9 06-11-2002, 01:05 PM

I went to the ACES show in Nashville. There was about 350 chevelles there. It was a pretty good show.

Chevellabration was indeed a great show and the bonus was finally getting to see Dennis Cumby's Fred Gibb '70 black LS-6. That was a sweet car with lots of documentation. If you ever decide to restore it, call me!! [img]/ubbthreads/images/icons/wink.gif[/img]
