Re: My LS6 Gamble pays off!
Congrats on the find.
Is that a PCV hose clip mounted on the rear of Dual Snorkle air cleaner? Also is it still holding the under headlight moulding possibly? That looks like the original design hood for a February assembled LS-6 someone,but someone installed Hoodpins & cables after delivery later on. Who was the original selling dealer? I agree with you on returning this 4:10 to it's original Astro Blue hue.

Re: My LS6 Gamble pays off!
Mr 70
That's a very good picture. That's my old car! Sold it to a local guy, who I believe sold it to a member of this board.

Re: My LS6 Gamble pays off!
Roy,
Being from Texas, would it possibly have been an Arlington built car?

"Not trying to stir anything up" Sure you are! I don't like when threads get reduced to semantics, but to me I am thrilled when I see a car that has not been cut up. "Untouched" to me means the body has not been worked, the drivetrain and acessories are all there. Sorry for the confusion. [/ QUOTE ] Sorry if I offended you with my comments. I was merely stating my opinion, which is what these forums are all about. Whether you like it or not, this hobby is very much about semantics, and the terms untouched, survivor, matching-numbers all have taken on multiple interpretations for better or for worse. If you were selling the car and used that language to advertise it there are people who would take exception with it. Good luck with the resto

Re: My LS6 Gamble pays off!
In this case,you can't call it a "Stripe Delete" vehicle,as you can't delete something it never was equipped with originally.
For 1970,the working Cowl Induction flapper hood came standard with "Cowl Induction" script,Hood Pins & Hood/Deck stripes.If the buyer asked for the stripes to be deleted,he was given a credit and the car was built w/o the stripes.That's where a "Stripe Delete" would apply. The standard Super Sport Bulge hood was just that,and needed RPO D-88 ordered to receive just the H&D stripes. Not meant to take anything away from this great Chevelle.
