Re: Fathom Blue LS-6 on Ebay
Someone wasn't afraid to pony up for this one
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Chevrolet...1QQcmdZViewItem Provided it actually sold,would this be a high water mark for a hardtop?

Re: Fathom Blue LS-6 on Ebay
No, the 26 original mile Cranberry Red went for approx $350K if I remember correctly.
The Diamond Restored one in the above link that Desert Auto Sports just sold (again) is a impressive piece. A friend of mine and I considered buying it but didn't have the extra $125K laying around at the time. That, combined with the little bit of rust around the drain holes of the exhaust caused me to take a pass. Seriously, the one that just sold is a very, very nicely restored car. "The Best in the Country" in their ad is truely arguable.

Re: Fathom Blue LS-6 on Ebay
You know I consider that 26 mile car an anomoly,and can't believe it fetched as much as a ZL1,but hey if you're liquid and dig A bodys that's the one.Excluding that aforementioned car,there seems to be quite a disparity in valuation with LS6's..What about that beautiful forest green 16k all original car that(for lack of a better word)struggled to pull six figures?. If that Phoenix car went for a buck fifty,was this one a deal at 65k?
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Chevrolet...bayphotohosting You could throw 35k at it and still be in it 50k less than that astro blue car.. Other than vert's,a very schizo market to figure out..

Re: Fathom Blue LS-6 on Ebay
If you're going to repeat the $350K selling price on that 26 mile LS-6,then you have to add the next owner sold it later on for $400K on Ebay.
I don't know who paid either of those prices. That Astro Blue LS-6 that got 150K on Ebay just now,was at Vette-Fest with us in November 2003 & sold for 85K there. Our own Frank Payne @ Flying A Restoration in Omaha Nebraska performed the resto,I think Frank told me his Son did it. Now who was it that paid 150K for it?

Re: Fathom Blue LS-6 on Ebay
They say it had a restoration done, yet the build sheet is still on top of the gas tank
 Seems kinda strange to me. I still wouldn't mind having it though, but I'm happy with mine
