Glad I did (in my paperwork NOT actually in the registry) as this car is now a rolling body and getting ready for paint. I inspected it a few months ago and got to break the news to the buyer. It best not EVER get sold as an original bodied LS6 convert. Real firewall, tags and motor but now a rebody.

Rick, Which car are we talking about?

Not a car at all, just a firewall, VIN tag, cowl tag and engine sold on ebay around 2006. I believe it was the opening comment on this thread.

Keep in mind this thread and the ebay link were started in 2007 so what comes up currently are not what originally showed up from the original post.

This is the Tonawanda stamp on the car in question.

Lesson learned.

When an item like this comes up for sale, auction or whatever, we need to save the pics, post them here, then post whatever is available re: vin trim tag numbers etc.

Stuff only stays on ebay for so long. Rick may be precluded from sharing the above info with us because of client confidence issues. But.. had we saved all that info (and pics) on this thread back in 07, we would all know exactly what car he is discussing.

With just a cowl and tags being sold in '07 the old thread makes much more sense. Thanks for the clarification. Troy

Fortunately I printed out the ebay ad from 2007 and had it in my files. There is no mention of the VIN number in that ad but when I inspected the car something kept nagging at me so I went and looked through my files. Bingo.

Let me stress, it at one time was a complete and real car but now it is a rebody. It does NOT have fake VIN, cowl and engine stamps. If/when the car ever comes up for sale I was told it will NOT be sold as an original bodied LS6 and he will be forthright. If it is list as an original body, then things will change. There is no need for me to taint the waters if the car is ever sold for what it is so that is why I am not posting the VIN. Also, to some degree as Lynn stated, for client confidentiality.

The problem with this is how many buyers will it go through before it becomes an origianl body car?
