P S, P B, smog equipment, M 22, Hurst shifter, AM FM, P top, tilt column, buckets, no console, Rally II wheels, Goodyear Polyglas F70 14 white letter tires. Excellent clearcoat repaint. Older restoration to nearly like new. A little corrosion in the engine compartment corner under battery. Chassis stamped on block side near clutch linkage; pad by head has only Towanda number. Clearcoat paint acne. No documentation except for a suspiciously pristine Protect O Plate. Engine build date is 10 5, cowl tag assembly date is first week of October, dates which are consistent only under the most optimistic coincidence. Wes Rhodes collection. No Reserve.

Market commentary

It was sold at B J in 2003 for $49,680 with the following car card: Correct parts: carb., manifold, M 22 4 speed transmission, h.d. suspension, 6500 rpm red line tach., power disc brakes,and power steering. All numbers matching for LS 6 equipped car including heads, block, differential and transmission. Title shows actual miles. This car was sold at Newport Beach auction in 1989, stored until 2002 and was represented as an actual LS 6.This is a beautiful, excellent driving and handling, undocumented LS 6 Convertible Chevell SS. The Quail bidders were not, as can be seen by this price, optimistic, and the price is consistent only with a determition of fake.
