I made friends with a man in Michigan who has a 1970 LS-6 Chevelle with a build date of 12/15/69.His buildsheet has typed under the RPO codes- Attn. E E Game-Chevy Engineering Center 30003 Van Dyke Warren Mich.
This car was built in Van nuys Calif.plant,Shipped to GM Engineering in Warren Mich.,and Charged to GM proving grounds in Mesa Az,as per the buildsheet.It is not a Customer ordered car.
His research from all the past owners in Michigan say it was a Car picked off the line at random,and tested by the engineers.They wanted to see how the new LS-6 was in testing.
Interesting that it was sent with its NA-9 EEC still intact,not taken off as were others that were shipped out of the state of Calif.were.

I have another friend in Michigan who has a 1970 LS-6 White Convertible with a build date of 12/15/69 (Yes Kevin,there is more then one).
Under his RPO codes it states:Attn W F Speer GM Proving Grounds Milford Mich
His is a Baltimore built LS-6,and charged to:Chevrolet Motor Div Engineering Center Warren Mich.
He believes his to be ONE of the FEW first LS-6 built Chevelle Convertibles out of Baltimore plant.His does not say Customer Ordered.
Both of these Chevelles are fairly well loaded.
Mr.Mattison do any of these name stand out to you as being someone you know?
