I have been in contact with the original owner of a 70 LS5 coupe which he states he ordered and recieved in Black.

If I were after a white one it would have to be a 70 with Bright Blue or any year with Red interior.
----I worked for a Hyannis Ma. used car dealer on and off in the early 70's and he bought around 4 or 5 Corvette converts new in primer, and then had them painted black when they came in. Only one of them was a 454 and I think it was a 72!......Bill S
