I don't remember how I was able to find the owner of the LS6 but I did. I had a friend that was in law enforcement back then, maybe I had him run the vin? I'm embarrassed I can't remember. Somehow, I found the owners name and then did some sleuthing and came up with a phone number. I called and explained my story and he didn't seem to interested. He said he still owned the car but already had a build sheet so we kind of left it at that. I didn't have a use for it and since he still owned the car, I just mailed the one I found.
I find it interesting that the build sheet they show is actually the one I mailed him. Maybe he really never had a build sheet for the car? Maybe he didn't know what a build sheet was? Maybe there is another one not pictured? In any event, I've seen that build sheet before because it was found in my LS5. Crazy story right?
