Paging ***mr70*** !!
 

Rick,

I just went to your site with the pix of your car !! https://www.yenko.net/ubb/smilies/ima...ns/shocked.gif

That thing is AWESOME !!! It has Pure Stock Drags written ALL over it !!! Can't Rob or Tom talk you into running it ?? https://www.yenko.net/ubb/smilies/images/icons/smile.gif

The interior combo is gorgeous !!! I'm sorry I didn't notice it sooner .... geesh ! https://www.yenko.net/ubb/smilies/images/icons/crazy.gif

LS-6's are great, but that is one neat combination of a car !!

Casey:

You are dead on about Rick's Chevelle. I check out his page about once a week, and have done so since he registered. Same pictures, same car, but WOW...!

When I had my LS-6, I always wished that it had red interior, versus the black. I agree with you about it looking ready for the Pure Stock Drags...notice how low it sets? If I had to guess, I would say original springs, and with that ride height, it GREATLY helps to eliminate wheel hop. And believe me, A-bodies LOVE to wheel hop! So, Rick...see you in Stanton https://www.yenko.net/ubb/smilies/images/icons/wink.gif?

Thanks guys! https://www.yenko.net/ubb/smilies/images/icons/smile.gif
I would have loved to attend this years PSMCDR in Michigan.It's just a stones throw from me here in the Western Chicago burbs..But other plans persist.It is in the Future though.(Steven J you're bringing you LS-6 with me.)
You are correct on the springs.We grew up with cars raised in the rear,and I was guilty myself,so during resto I made sure that thing sat right!I was very pleased with the outcome.
I too was drawn to it being a Red interior car.I didn't want another Red/Black 70 Chevelle.But this engine and color combo spoke to me like none other.She's a Keeper.
And I stole it out from under Rob in his own home state! https://www.yenko.net/ubb/smilies/images/icons/wink.gif

Man Rick, that is one sweet Chevelle. I've always been partial to the '70 and '71 models, as yourself. I came close to buying one in Dallas back in '96. It had the same color combination, but had a 454 LS5. The car needed a lot of TLC, so I tried to get the seller to agree to a lower price. He said he'd think about it for the weekend. He called me a few days later, telling me he'd take nearly 30% less. "So what's the deal," I said. Turns out he took the Velle out for a last drive and ended up hitting a tree and catching it on fire. https://www.yenko.net/ubb/smilies/images/icons/frown.gif --Bullitt
