Thanks for the positive comments. I think the cars is pretty darn original. One of the top painters in Houston came over this evening and showed me exactly what had been re-touched and what was original paint. The car has about 90% of it's original lacquer paint. I'm just blown away at the condition of the paint.

The block looks better in the pictures, but it may have been painted at some point. Nether of the previous owners, would admit to having painted the block and both told me the engine had never been out of the car. However, they kept every item ever taken off the car. I mean I got a box full of original parts. All bagged and labeled. Rotor, coil, Packard plug wires, spark plugs, every gasket ever taken off the car, wheel well molding screws, dist points cover, dist cap, hood insulation the list goes on and on. The car has a oil service sticker on the drivers door jam dated 5.27.70. May be from it's 1st oil change considering it's a 3C build date. I'll try to post some pictures of the undercarriage tomorrow.

Thanks
Rick

It looks like a really neat find. Glad to see such an original car that has been preserved well. Now go drive it some..

Rick,

------Im interested in weather the sport wheel was on the car originally. I would have added it as well as I love them but just wonder if the original owner was savvy enough to order it new.
------You have a beautiful LS6 with the purchase of this car. It isnt often you see original untouched plastic inner-fenders. I love that, as well as the yellowed interior pieces, really. Sort of gives the car that original patina. please dont change those out as they are part of the history of this exceptionally well kept car......Bill S
