Default Re: Briggs Chevrolet

I have talked to a few people and I heard that in the 1980's Don Hughey at Hugheys Auto Ranch in S.Carolina bought an LS6 Convert.that was a reported Famous Drag Car in its Hey Day.He bought it from a Man Named Shelly from Louisianna for 5K with the understanding he wouldn't resell it,or at least give him first shot at it.Don soon sold the car in the early 1990's for 40K.Shelly,upon hearing this was so outraged,he wouldn't fork over the Buildsheet and other intresting Drag Docs and Pix for it to the new owner.I believe Don H.sold the LS6 Convert. with a Buldsheet,but Shelly has a more extensive collection of paperwork for it as well.
I don't know if this is the same Drag LS6 we are reffering to,but it does entail more research by me.I will keep digging as I may have found this Chevelles current owner today...
