Looks like his "holy grail" turned into "hole-y shit !!"

After seeing the posted pictures of the A pillars and the inside of the Birdcage, I can see why. Bill

And maybe it is just me, but seems like the HP drop from 70 to 71 makes the 70 LS6, regardless of if it is Corvette or Chevelle, the one that really brings big money.

It's still the last aluminum head (and intake) solid lifter Big Block ever made, you gotta give it that, even if it does have a CE short block in it. The Green / Green just kills it for me, but what do I know? Bill

Green on green coupe, ce block. Paper is a big plus but I don't see over 60k.

Agreed. I felt there was 100k in restoration costs (with doing much of the work myself) for a car that has a CE block and is green. While I myself love the green on green, it's not for everyone.

I did not know that. Was LS5 available in the Corvette in 1970?
Boy, do I feel like a dumbass. That's why I LOVE this site. I learn something new on a regular basis.

Yes. That was the top Corvette engine option in 70. There were a slew of different versions of the 454 slated for 70 (as detailed in the AIM), but the LS5 was the only offered BBC.
