Ok, the way I have it figured is you only need 50.00 more. I'm in for the fifty but when all is said and done, I get to keep it. Let's roll!

OK-Timeout! Again your imaginations are running amuck. Before we chop this car and guy up, HERE'S THE REAL STORY ON THE CAR. I DO MY HOMEWORK.
This car was originally sold at Bob Fram(spelling?) Chevrolet in Spring Harbor, Michigan. It was LEASED to a customer who blew it up after approximately 5,000 miles. It was picked up by Art Moen Chevrolet in Jackson, Michigan. They installed a factory replacement block. It was then purchased by a gentleman and his partner. There is a good reason for the low mileage(which is also legit). The car spent most of it's life drag racing. The car was raced at Indy, Milan, Norwalk, Moroso(for years here), etc. In it's racing form in the 90's the car was black, black convertible top, gold stripes. The car was parked in this color scheme with a 427 race motor in it. It was then sold by one partner to the gentleman that has it on Ebay. I am told if he left the original windshield in it, there is a stone chip that a dragster threw up at it while in line at the strip. So in conclusion-YES, it is a real LS6 convertible- YES, the build sheet is real- YES, it is now the right color- YES,it is a correct but not numbers matching engine- and YES, the car probably has the most interesting history as any of the 23,24,25,26 or whatever you believe exist. I did not obtain this information from the Ebay seller. This information came from the "horse's mouth". If anyone has any more questions on the car or history, I will furnish you with a name and number.

That I can't help you with at this time. However, I received a call from Michigan from someone involved in the car before the current owner and they gave me the history. I just want to satisfy any speculation as to the authenticity of the car. I guess it is entirely up to the current owner as to availability of the build sheet. I looked at the posts on the Chevelle site and they were starting to imply that the car is a fake. It is not.

mc-
I agree. We have all heard the stories of the rare old car stashed away for years that everybody forgot about. That is literally the case here. I have spoken to the previous owner, his best friend, and the current owner. I can assure you that the car is what it is. I even uncovered more interesting facts about the car. I'm confused about the criticism for buying parts on Ebay also. I'm guilty of the same offense. I didn't think it made a difference if you bought a correct part via mail or if you went there in person to pick it up.
