Default Re: LS6 vert on ebay. Not mine

Sadly Jim you would be amazed. I went on three inspections this year where someone paid big money for what they thought was a real LS6 convert. Two of these individuals have huge collections and are very knowledgable but not on LS6's and both got badly stung. I just wish they would check with us BEFORE they buy.


<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Quote:</div><div class="ubbcode-body"> As I learned in the last year you could get stripe colors other than &quot;offered&quot; on these. There are build sheets out there indicating such with special order...........never say never, right Rick? </div></div>

I hear you Dick. Not only the one I posted for you but a more recent Black Cherry with black stripes and &quot;D88 Stripe painted black per F&amp;SO&quot; on the build sheet. Just sold from Ill and headed out east.
