Ron,

If you are interested in the car you should call the number in the ad. I'm sure that would answer many of your questions. Maybe the former owner had more than one brother. I too would like to know more history on the car but I am not a buyer. Maybe the new owner will be nice enough to share the history.

The present owner has posted about this car numerous times. My point is that these questions have not been voluntarily addressed in the past. There is often more to be discerned from what is NOT said than what is.

Point taken. The owner would come here, ask questions, then not reply to questions that were asked. I imagine the car is real. Maybe getting the letter from Joel is difficult since the estate does not want to pay the fee? The aluminum head thing is interesting. Why not start with a LS6 car? Were 71 LS6 Vettes available with A/C? I doubt it but am not sure.

Jason,

To my knowledge, no LS6 cars came with A/C; I was wondering if the car would have been turned into an LS6 or LS7 by Motion before selling it.

Does it seem right that B/M would charge 12.5K for a car and not show the itemized costs for their enhancements? Do other B/M invoices follow this procedure? You are right about the aluminum head thing; no mention of 074s on the invoice. They wouldn’t have been stock on this A/C car.

All the more reason Joel’s input would be invaluable (an investment that would reap immediate dividends); pretty hard to do an accurate restoration without the answer to these questions.

Also, weren’t there a few posts that claimed this invoice in question has an address for B/M that they actually were not at until sometime later than the date shown??

Can’t quite remember that detail and that particular thread has been deleted from the Supercar database.

WOW. I was trying to defend you earlier. Rather than telling Ron to "shut the hell up," why don't you answer the questions he posted? There are a lot of real buyers that frequent this website. It would be in the estates best interest to be civil. You said you didn't put ths on this forum. You actually posted the car here months ago without a price. You asked a lot of questions and only answered questions when you wanted to. It would only take a few minutes to answer the questions that have been asked here. It may peak interest in the car that shyed away before due to the apparent secretism. As I said before, I am not a buyer. It just seems to me, it would be much more polite to ask Ron to PM you privately than say "shut the hell up." Politeness goes a long way. I hope the car breaks the bank and I am sorry for your loss.

<font color="blue">He is my bill of sale from 1968. No breakdown on this either. Maybe because it is a Baldwin invoice.
Mr. Bean still signs &amp; dates the same way though. </font>
