I give the seller/broker credit for admitting it's a re-creation,but that's it.
Based on the few small pictures he posted,it has an incorrect 1969 Master Cylinder,incorrect Chrome air cleaner top,No A.I.R. system,incorrect Black Alt. pulley,cowl grilles when it shouldn't and No TCS system at all.
These are all labor intensive fixes,and for 240K I would expect it to have all these issues taken care of.
240K is Very tall money for a car like this right now,and I'd be willing to bet Charleys 5K that a real documented one would have a hard time bringing it as well,let alone a clone.

I would rather have Chad's original LS5 convert for half the price of a poor LS6 clone

A real one - I agree.
But way too much for a clone, You could build one yourself, for way less than 1/2.

Someone actually offered $200k for it and was rejected. Next highest offer was $50k.
