Bill, the car is still registered in Illinois in Aurora, he has moved and I was able to get his name and the new address; from the internet. My friend went there last night and talked to the guy. The car is absolutely mint. The owner of the car is coming over this weekend to look at the motor. He has owned the car since 92, he got the car off his father(who got it off the original owner Al Lence) and his father passed away 4 days latter. The guy lived in Aurora where it is still registered; and now he moved to Sugar Grove. I guess I can't get the car. Pretty cool, how close it is. It would be really cool to unite the original motor with the car

That would be just flat out cool. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/cool.gif
Hope it happens.

Yes, it is real the guy is going over to the body shop this weekend to see the engine. The deal that I worked out with the shop, if I could have got the car, I would have given him a completely rebuilt 512 block dated 69 427 with a 163 intake and 4346 carb. That he could put in his 1969 Camaro. You can see in one of the pictures of the motor his 69 Camaro he is restoring. I guess it would be up to the seller of the motor what it would take. He has had it for a real long time the motor and what would it cost him to replace it. The real value I guess is for the guy who owns the car if he wants the correct motor??? or if he is happy with his CE replacement. If he never sells the car who cares what he has in it. For me it would be having the correct motor maybe not in the car but on a stand in the garage...

He thought it was a convertible, which is what the parts manager Phil? told him in 1971.

Is it indeed an LS-6 Convertible then?
Cool follow up.

that's exactly where I'm at, I feel fine with my original motor and trans (125,000 miles)on a stand in the garage. Much less to worry about when I take that rare cruise. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/frown.gif
