Default 1970 LS-6

Does anyone on the sight know anything about this car? It is a Kansas car and the engine stamping has some unusual numbers stamped on the front pad. I know many Kansas cars had the VIN stamped upside down but I have never seen the additional stampings. Any help would be appreciated.

Scott,the stampings are good. I am guessing the motor was rebuilt or something and that is what the extra numbers stamped on the pad are.

The seller came on either this site or the Chevelle website and asked a bunch of questions when he found the car...my recollection is that it was generally perceived to be the real deal.

I spoke with the owneox a few weeks ago when he had it on team chevelle for sale. He said he found it in a back yard and the people had no idea what it was. he said he found the buildsheet in the glovebox. He sounded like a pretty honest guy and seems to have given an honest description on the car.

I looked long and hard at this car to purchase when Paul found it. In fact the only thing that held me back was the fact is wasn't a stripe/cowl car ... I know I know. It's a great car

I talked with the owner also, and I believe it is as claimed.
I think it would be great to see one finally done without stripes. All we ever see are stripes added to the ones that didn't come with them.

I think it makes the car unique without them. I like it.
