All Good points Joe.
I too emailed the seller for more specifcs,especially releasing the rearend suffix code that could identify it as a true LS-5 or LS-6,if it's original to this Chevelle.
Who do we have in Tuscon...

Yes...that's true. Tucson is about one hour away...if I drive really fast. I'm no expert on Chevelles, though...Heck, I just got mine not too long ago...

Hmmmm...who else lives here and knows Chevelles....Sam...are you reading this?

$25K gamble on a rusted Chevelle with no paperwork that Joel can't document. Sounds like the odds are better in Vegas on the tables.

I am here also and have owned a couple of chevelles but not the expert..

.. grew up in tucson, there used to be some really fast cars down there.. a nickey and some copos at the local speed shops and one of the mechanics the family knew had a gold copo that really rocked. too much horsepower for our chasis dyno back then.. I don't remember details except they couldn't keep traction on the drums with the cheater slicks on it but remember all the mechanics talking about it when I was a kid.

I GUESS HE WANTS TO KEEP IT.

NO DOCS=NO MONEY!

Looks like it has dual fuel lines, so not an LS-6 or an L-78 car originally which IMO lessens the chance it was a BM car. Also, not sure why he mentions the Flint build as pointing to authenticity. I would think a Baltimore built car would have been more likely to be sold out of NY.

Buyers Beware. Larry.

Regardless of what it ever once was,by raising the price by $50,000.00 more near the end of the auction like that,he just made up my mind for me.
