1970 Chevelle LS6 - triple black 7,900 miles
 

A friend has asked me to help him sell his one owner, fully doc'd triple black LS6 car. Turbo400, 4:10's, F41, etc. allegedly the most optioned, survivor car left. Stunningly detailed, I have some pics on my site but they are less than flattering - the car is the real deal with all docs from new and still operates under the original title and 1st inspection sticker - sorry the warranty is gone.

Asking $250,000

SEE PICS HERE - THANKS!

Hey Dave, is the car in the USA or Australia?

I think the car is beautiful,but are you claiming this to be a "Survivor" or a Restored detailed car? https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...s/confused.gif
The gas tank & exhaust have clearly been replaced with new world reconditioned parts,as has the engine compartment.
That's a Y-71 50 month Delco battery in front of it,and not the correct application for the 1970 LS-6 Chevelle.
Buick & Oldsmobiles used it.
Can you release the RPO codes assigned to it as well as more pictures?

USA now Stuart - Illinois - did you get my emails on the Elky's??

Re: 1970 Chevelle LS6 - triple black 7,900 miles
 

Mr70 - you are absolutely correct - it's obviously a detailed car - with original paint/body/int/etc. The other 27 mile LS6 car I'm consigning is a survivor... thanks! I'll try and get more pics ASAP but it may take a few more days. I'll get the RPO Codes - email me?

I'll check my email tonight.

Wow, that 27 mile car is really something too....what's the history on these? ~ Pete

I guess we all define "survivor" differently. In my definition, this means a car that hasn't been messed with. No replaced parts, no reconditioning, etc. If you have a TRUE 7,900 mile car, why would some of these components needed to replaced/reconditioned in the first place!? It just doesn't make sense.

There are absolutely circumstances which would inhabit the restoration of a low mile car. Many of these cars were stashed in barns or in backyards and any exposed metal would be shot to $hit in a couple years. Metal oxidizes and rusts, mice get into interiors, and paint wears down. There is no ONE correct definition of survivor; that’s impossible. This is an example of a low mile car that has been brought back to life. Some people like patina, some like show and shine. In a perfect world everyone would like to find a 7,900 original mile ’70 LS6 Chevelle in BLACK that has escaped the evil hands of the restoration shop owner but lets get serious here guys, these cars were beat to crap from the moment they were driven off the lot. How many people have friends or even remember back to the day when they picked up a Hi-Po muscle car and turning out of the dealer lot they dropped the clutch and did a whole shot down the main street. Sometimes all this bickering makes me sick.

Sorry, its been a whirlwind of a day.

I agree. I was thinking the other day about how many miles us americans drive yearly. Some of these low mile cars are amazing in the fact they were not driven hardly at all compared to the age. If I had a new LS6 back in the day, especially with gas prices then, I would almost sleep in the car. I think we loose site of how many years has gone buy. 8000 miles in 35 years, WHAT!
