I had to chuckle when the owner says he thinks the replacement drivers door came from an El Camino It'd be interesting to hear what Rick Nelson thinks of this LS6.

He also said they made 4500 auto and 4500 stick ls6 🤦🏻*♂️ pgn did a car of his a few years back. The shadow gray ls6 with special order white stripes

Good catch Rich. Went back and watched it. Same house.

The cars are fairly local (a couple of hours) to me if anyone needs anything. I’ve chatted with the owner and he seems like a pleasant guy but have heard he is a flipper more than a collector. We’ve talked on the LS6 but I haven’t seen the car in person. It is a neat car but doesn’t have a complete (or even substantial parts) build sheet as of this weekend.

He did find a few pieces and from the pics you could make an argument the pieces corroborate the engine option ( but nothing else really and even that piece isn’t really complete) but at the money to buy and then when restored.. personally I’d want complete bullet proof docs.. Someone will have well over $200k in the car at this point for it to be restored properly.

The cars unfortunately are caught in the middle between survivors and restored cars, with pricing that makes it tough the minute something gets unbolted.. just my opinion.

He keeps saying that he is going to try to start the car. Hasn’t yet.

The 1969 chevelle ss l89 is running and driving well , on second drive the front left caliper got stuck and that is the only thing needs attention now and one floor kickpanel speaker and screen are being put back in place after speaker cover/screen is repainted , if any one has any questions feel free to contact me about the l89 8043148128, thanks

Yes my mistake on that I meant around 4500 made total but not sure that’s not exactly rite either
