Default Re: LS5 Ragtop on Ebay

[ QUOTE ]
Couple of questions. Was the open element AF available for the LS5? Did the Lakewood plant make convertibles? If so why would a Florida delivered (per BS) LS5 vert come from Baltimore. Not throwing any spears here. Just curious. Nice looking car.

Thanks

Sam-
side note on paper - not to change the subject, I have the orig window sticker for the T/A that shows the car was/?? delivered on the east coast new and was factory transfered out here to Seattle, kinda odd but its the original sticker and it shows the transfer at the top of it. I guess it was re-routed for demand by GM???

any dealer trade I have ever seen they sell it with the sticker with the original dealers name on it,just a interesting tid bit to file away.

now back to the Chevelle.

Jim,here's a thread with over two thousand hits on this subject-
http://www.chevelles.com/forums/showthread.php?t=134511

I feel very strongly that we should refrain from posting legitimate sheets-these guys are very close already,and every time we provide another blueprint the time will soon be at hand when there will be no way to tell the diff.

It is becoming scary how well they are starting to fake the sheets. As pointed out earlier,the font is incorrect and not dark enough. Several issues with the codes as some are not correct for the car. No sense pointing them out as the person that made the sheet could be reading this. Not to say they wont find out eventually,but why help them.

Please don't shoot the messenger here.... i'm just factually stating what I know here as of TODAY. I did some easy checking on the Dade County, Fla. property tax rolls, and other things, starting from 1955, which is when I moved here...

927 Andora Ave. on the POP, does NOT exist, never did, 915 and 931 do exist on that side of the street, 920 is on the other side of the street. Homes are still in place, originally built from 1955-1964, and still there today, nothing has changed in 40-50 years there.

Don Allen Chev. was at 2050 N. Miami Ave, the corner of 20th St and N. Miami Ave., the lot still exists. Not 2245, which is two blocks down, and on the other side of the street. The correct zip was 33127, not 33727, as shown on the build sheet.

Box 94 shows a rear speaker, however the balance knob for it is missing on the radio, and there is NO rear speaker...

The axle tubes are welded at the pumpkin, and ground down smooth, draw your own conclusions here...

ditto on the no 4.10's rule, didn't happen...

alternator pulley is for an LS6 ?

A/C compressor clutch is for a GS Stage 1 or a W30 Olds...

I see at least 2 or 3 other build sheet *issues*, one very obvious, but I ain't sayin' nuttin more...

Jim
