Default LS6 convert clone heads up

I was given information by someone that has known this car and asked me to post.

http://www.kijiji.ca/v-classic-cars/...ble/1095445674

1. The car started out as a 307, column shift, convertible.

2. This 1970 Chevelle was owned by a professional hockey. He purchased it when he was playing for the Chicago Blackhawks.

3. He had someone in the Chicago area clone it up as SS big block car and install a GM 502 CI crate engine and rebuild/install a Turbo 400 transmission.

4. Although he could easily afford a LS6 Chevelle convertible, he admitted publically he preferred to build a clone, with no intention of deceiving anybody.

5. When the hockey player imported into Ontario Canada was a running, driving 1970 Chevelle with the 502.



His Chevelle was sold in 2013. Included in the Chevelle sale was a unstamped, non VIN numbered 454 LS6 that he had previously purchased. The cars original quarters were getting "soft" at the bottom, behind the wheel wells. All the new owner was going to be buying was a cloned 1970 big block Chevelle with a 502, an unstamped LS6 engine and some small parts.



Now the car has resurfaced in Mossley Ontario, Canada, not as a 1970 Chevelle cloned big block 502 SS, but as a "one of 23???? triple black convertible LS6 Chevelle" with not a stitch of paperwork for a tidy sum of $200,000.


I trust the information that was given me but as always if someone is interested they should do their own due diligence.

OK guys, since there is info to back-up this, I think everyone should click on the link. In the right hand upper corner there is a flag to report this add. I think people should report this as a scam or &quot;other&quot; just to make kijiji aware of the info being not correct.

But also, this &quot;seller&quot; may NOT know of the history and therefore might have a case aas well for whoever sold it to him......
