While the auto may not be as desirable for some - it's still an LS6 convertible.....

IMHO the auto and the lack of D88 hurts the car, just like it hurt the Black LS6 DAVE BEEM had with 4,300 miles. Black on black sans ZL2 and Stripes will depress the value no matter the miles.
There is a 1000 mile black 69 RS/Z without stripes, cowl induction or endura... PRICED the same I would take the 45k mile non matching numbers car I was the care taker of VS the 1000 mile car because of the aesthetic appeal of stripes cowl induction and VE3.

Dave's 4300 mile black LS6 didn't have stripes, did have a M22. So how much did it actually hurt the selling price?

I had a 1970 LS6 with a turbo 400 and 4.10 rear end, When you smashed the pedal all hell broke loose . That car was a beast and a blast to drive. 4 speed might be more desirable but the automatic cars get it done.

Agree. Auto or stick doesn't matter to me as far as enjoyment. I like and own both.

It does seem to affect value to some people, but it's still an LS6 convertible. I wouldn't kick it out of the garage.

Lack of stripes, bench seat cloth, and no ZL2 probably cost Daves car 125-150k.

FWIW The current care take of the Black RS/Z is in Canada and told me he turned down multiple US 200k offers from 2 different US collectors.

Sounds like my kinda car. Less flash, all go.

Dave got close to record money even with no stripes and bench seats.

Lets face it, the market is all in for z28s with rs and colors....real trim tag is optional

I saw in another post the Fuller LS6 is not original paint? Is that true? Does anyone know for sure?
