I WONDER HOW THE BLOCK IS STAMPED EXACTLY LIKE THE ORIGINAL IF THEY HAVE NO PROTECTOPLATE TO SHOW WHAT THE ORIGINAL STAMP WAS ANYWAY. THEY SHOULD BE ASHAMED OF THEMSELVES FOR THAT WHOLE STORY! I KNOW OTHER PEOPLE WHO HAS EMAILED THEM ALSO AND GOT THE SAME ANSWER! THE GUY WHO THEY SAID HAD THE CAR FOR 30 YEARS IS FALSE AND HE DID NOT EVEN BUILD THE CAR!!! I DONT GET IT! THIS ONES GOING TO GET VERY INTERESTING I GUESS.

I hate it when I see clone stuff being passed off as original. In the sub-heading he says "True 1970 LS6 Convertible". Later on he says "When this 1970 LS6 was new...". I would interpret those 2 statements as this being a factory original car. He sure likes to use the words "durability" and "reliability". For somebody that didn't restore the car he sure knows a lot of details. Maybe it wasn't David Gilmore the Corvette guy that restored it. Maybe instead it was David Gilmore of Pink Floyd!

THIS IS GETTING OUT OF CONTROL,I WILL TRY TO CLEAR UP ALL OF THIS CONFUSION. I BUILT THE CAR FROM A REAL SS. IT DIDNT HAVE ANY PAPERWORK OR AN ORIGINAL ENGINE SO I BUILT THE CAR THE WAY I WANTED, WITH MANY ORIGINAL LS6 PARTS THAT I HAD COLLECTED OVER THE YEARS. I BROUGHT THE CAR TO SPRING CARLISLE TO SELL. A CROWD GATHERED AROUND THE CAR ON THE TRAILER, AND IT SOLD IN TEN MINUTES TO A VERY REPUTABLE DEALER. I HAD A LARGE POSTER EXPLAINING ALL THE DATE CODES AND CASTING NUMBERS AND THAT THIS CAR WAS A CLONE AND WAS NOT BUILT BY GM AS A TRUE LS6. THE 3RD PARAGRAPH READ( THIS IS A 1970 CHEVELLE SS CONVERTIBLE WITH ALL VINTAGE LS6 PARTS PROPERLY PRE-DATING THE BODY BUILD DATE MAKING THIS THE MOST CORRECT CONVERTIBLE LS6 CLONE YOU HAVE EVER SEEN.)
THE 5TH PARAGRAPH SAID (THIS CONVERTIBLE IS SO CORRECT THAT THE BUYER OF THIS CAR MUST SIGN A LEGAL DOCUMENT THAT ACKNOWLEDGES THIS CAR IS NOT A TRUE LS6 FROM GM.)
THE BUYER SIGNED THE LEGAL DOCUMENT AND A WITNESS SIGNED THE DOCUMENT. THE CAR WAS THEN PUT INTO HIS ENCLOSED CAR CARRIER. THE CAR WAS ONLY AT CARLISLE FOR APPROX. 45 MINUTES ON THURSDAY.
NOT LONG AFTER I HEARD THIS CAR WAS SOLD AT MECUM- ROCKFORD SPRING CLASSIC AS A CLONE.
IM NOT SURE WHAT GOING ON, BUT I PLAN ON CALLING HAPPY CARS TOMORROW.
REGARDS, MIKE

I talked to mike a few months back about a red ls6 chevelle and he had told me about this ls6 convertible and had clearly stated to me the car was a clone. That is good you had them sign a letter stating that it was a clone. Chad
