Ls6 Mist Green with 4800 miles in Pa.
 
Anyone know the history of this car? It looks like the right side fender and door has a different color. Was this car hit at some point? Drag car? It also looks like it's had a chassis restoration. Why would a ultra low mileage car have the chassis restored? I don't know if this is true but I heard the car was clear coated. This car has been for sale for quite a long time. Seems that it should have sold already. Just curious.

Sounds like the Rick Morehouse LS-6 that was bought new @ Krumpholtz Chevrolet in West Chicago in april 1970.
If so,it has been passed around many,many times since then and discussed here.https://www.yenko.net/forum/showthread.php?t=99824
I'm very familiar with it's past and was recently restored too.
Last I saw John H. sold it @ auction to Canada I believe.

----That BJ description is absolutely false when it says 85% original paint. Don't get me wrong, I still like Ricks and my old car, but it has been repainted at least 3 times if I am remembering correctly. Wish I knew then what I know now as I would have had it restored by Vic and kept it. Car was brutally fast.......Bill S

Rob Leipziger 's car. Saw it many times. He also owns some other rare musclecars with uber low mileage too. Hes owns Robs towing and auto/truck repair in Bristol pa

so why does this hurt it's value. alot of cars had wisky licks, damaged back then. If it was fixed right and with NOS parts no issue. Every car has a history, why lie and say original paint and unrestored. Just because it has low miles, does not mean it was kept in a bubble and should look showroom fresh.
