Sorry Les, I did not realize this was the same car that Chad had mentioned to me a while ago. Based on that conversation and other comments I would also consider passing if another sheet cannot be produced from that car to prove it's heritage. It would appear as thought the car has not been very far apart and if that is the case there really should be other sheets in the car. If not I would be rather concerned.

As far as the tach, door panels and some other items being good indicators of an LS-6, if I had $5 for every car that Chad and I looked at over the past several years that fit that scenario but turned out to be bogus I would have his fuel costs covered. I would honestly say 80% of the cars he and I looked at turned out to be fake and this was 3 or more years ago. When you can sell a car for twice the money because of supposed LS-6 heritage people will go to great lengths to fake them.
