Re: 27 Mile LS6
What a beautiful, beautiful car. Of course, we know it can't be a real SS, according to the car show experts, with that column shift and bench seat! Almost (almost) makes me think my 12k and 18k cars are high mile.
Rick: I think that hood overspray (underspray?) is the exception rather than rule. I'm not saying it's "wrong" (it can't be!), just unusual. I've never seen orig with that much, have you? Lots of great details that are so often overlooked or wrong: Upper A arm bushing washers are black, not cad. Master cyl is black, not natural. Trunk spatter paint is very random and is sloppy on hinges. I can (and will) look at these photos for hours. Dave

Re: 27 Mile LS6
Lets hope not every 70 Chevelle gets restored the way this one appears now...you can't take one mass produced car and put all the same mistakes or details on them.

Re: 27 Mile LS6
Exactly. That's why I mentioned a couple of details that are commonly wrong and have snowballed. My latest thing is chassis paint markings I'm finding as I do one of my Z16s. Some of these are UNDER the part's paint and were never visible after assy.
I can only restore the car as IT was made, not as someone else's was built or restored but that 27 mile LS6 sure is a very nice examble to compare notes on! Dave

Re: 27 Mile LS6
The questions and answers on the auction are a good read. He says he is going on Jay Leno next week but I can't tell if he is serious.
