Does anyone know the Astro Blue LS6 at Ruuso? Black bench 4 speed with 4.10s. I can't find the link.

Lot #670,bid to 100K was a no sale.
I thought I knew this car from my past,but that one had bucket seats,so it's not one I'm familiar with.

Thot I remembered that car. I have seen it in person when at Desert Auto Sport. Nice resto considering the standards of 2004-5.

Car is a good car and is tentatively sold. It was Diamond Certified back in I think 2003 and scored 5293 points out of 5500 beating my Shadow Grey LS6 restoration by six points. It was the second highest scoring LS6 at that time and was a beautiful restoration by Nyles at Wings Auto Art. All born with drive train and mostly original parts. A good buy at $140.

There was also a neat red COPO Camaro at Russo that did not sell. I think it bid to 140K. You walk right by it because of the TA radial tires on it, non smog manifolds with heat shields....Then you look closer and it appears all orig interior, black vinyl top. 140 speedo, COPO Connection cert showing double COPO, X11 car, Protecto plate and purchase papers from Ed Stinn ? Stated all orig drivetrain. Cool car that I don't remember seeing before.

It sounds like the car that CK Spurlock bought at a Super Chevy Sunday Show @ Indy back in the 80s. That car was a double copo from Ed Stinn Chevrolet. Was featured in Super Chevy Magazine later.

Nice car. An original Stinn mechanic that worked at the dealership, and who frequents the local car scene during the summer; said all the Stinn COPO Camaros came with a vinyl top. Does this car have the NCRS on it?
