That is John G's LS6 convertible I restored for him a couple years ago with a very dusty decklid. LOL. I was storing it there waiting its turn for the MCACN show and keeping it out of my way at the shop. It is now in California.

As for the non flapper hood on my pictures versus the restored L78, the restorer may have added that option when it was restored, who knows. I know there are people on here that know the VIN but I do not have it on either car unfortunately but otherwise very similar cars and both in the same area of Kansas City.

The car I posted pictures of was restored by Chris Cadwallader. I found some pictures of I believe the same car on Corvette Jim's website. He has a nice collection of Chevys up in Wisconsin. It's my understanding that Black Cherry Chevelles came with white stripes regardless of top color. Could you special order black stripes in '70 on a Black Cherry Chevelle if you wanted them? The car Rick posted photos of had black stripes as well.

This is my brothers Black Cherry 70 Chevelle back in the day. Black stripes.

Yes you could. There is currently a documented Black Cherry LS6 coupe for sale.
