LS-6 on Ebay

[427.060]

He sells some nice looking cars but removing the pictures of the paperwork without any explanation makes this one questionable.

Just checked in and glad to see the post. I am unsure of the validity of the build sheet(s) and the window sticker is for sure a reproduction that many cars have for show. I thought it would be best to delete those photos and sell it as it is! 1970 LS6 that is a VERY VERY nice car, and presumed to be earliest LS6 off the line at the Lakewood assembly plant! Thanks.

If you just saw this post questioning the paperwork, why were the pictures removed several hours ago?

It's a shame there isn't any real supporting paper on this car.It would have been only the third 12B LS6 known to date(and from a third different plant) and would have helped establish a general timeline for rollout.If you were to presume it was an original LS6 car it would almost have to be the plant pilot,and like the other two second week cars a CMD brass hat zone demo.Unfortunately it could also be an L34 but a nice example and great color for sure

With a questionable buildsheet and a reproduction window sticker it would seem a good share of the rest of the narrative in the ad should be removed as well.

'70 Chevelles without real docs are called clones in most circles today.

I must say I was not happy about the way it was implied that I authenticated this car as the earliest known Lakewood car after reading the other thread. Several people asked me about it and I just left it alone. After seeing more information on the car and finally seeing the buildsheets, it was obvious they were faked and I did NOT appreciate the implications. Bob had sent me an e-mail prior to my response to the thread and I was only posting that response to let him know that I returned his e-mail. At this point, NOTHING had been commented on regarding this car.

So is this the earliest vin known? Car is on its way! More details and photos to come. Thanks for the good info!

Here is that e-mail that was sent to Bob Peck. No where in my e-mail do I even comment on this car even though Supersports reply might make it sound that way. This is just one of the reasons I am VERY skeptical of peoples requests anymore especially when coming from a broker. They make it sound like someone in the know authenticates the car so they can pass it off as something it is not. Hence my comment below regarding the public use of my name and information. I very seldom charge people for my services and DO NOT appreciate it when it is abused and all for their benefit. In the future, if it is for their gain, maybe I should make it for mine as well especially when my name is being used against my will. It is all about the money.

Hello,
I am thinking about purchasing this car and wondered if you had any information? It is supposed to have its original MOTOR stamped factory block it left the factory with and a auto trans.
Thank you!

I have the registry and do not currently know anything about a Lakewood plant car with VIN 118941. I saw your post on Yenko.net and had no information available that is why I did not respond. I would have to see copies of any documents and/or untouched photos showing the engine, trans and rearend stamping to determine the legitimacy of this car.

Yes and please do. I would like to see the build sheet. Also any photos that may be available. Keep in mind, without being able to inspect the actual build sheet, I can only speculate on it's authenticity. Lastly, however my response is completely between you and I and I do not want my name used as an authentication tool without my permission.

Bob,
Were you going to e-mail me a copy of the buildsheet? (I never received them as promised so I was never able to make any judgement call on this car).
Rick

I am not sure who gave him information leading Bob to think his was the earliest Lakewood car but it was not me. I never even implied to ANY degree this car was even remotely real.
