A documented LS6 that just needs a couple weekends of some TLC for $65k? Her asking price is not totally out of bounds. I think $75-$80 is what it would bring. Real LS6 Chevelle's in good color...

Very true, his car sits up about an inch higher than mine at all 4 corners. Glad to hear your in good shape. These cars should have come from the factory with these wheels IMO.

I did not weigh them but they were noticeable lighter than the SS wheels I took off.
They change the whole attitude of the car.
