Just joined the site last night after buying my all time dream car a 1970 LS-6 Chevelle. I need to learn so many things now that I have the car in hand. It is real and numbers matching with tons of docs.The car needs work and some parts so any help from those out there that know about these cars will be greatly appreciated. Please help me make this car the best it can be.

Thanks

Mac

Welcoome, to the best Chevelle site. I will encourage you to register your LS6 in the LS6 registery managed by Rick Nelson, the guru of LS6. I know he will post the link to the registery.

Next year will make 30 years that I have owned my 70.

Hope you get to enjoy that many with yours !!

It was the first car I ever bought. I somehow managed to scrape up 400 bucks plus the 500 my father ADVANCED me for graduating high school - the 400 was probably some kind of loan as well :O)


Thanks Dad!

Welcome Mac..I think you will find this is probably the most helpful and friendly bunch on the web. I know I have found it to be so...

Please post some pics of the LS6...I sold an LS6 about 3 years ago, saw it for sale last year on traderonline for twice what I sold it for. Hold on to that sucker!

Thanks guys for the very warm welcome. I have been involved in muslcecars for the last 25 or more years and have never had such a nice group of people welcome me. The car does not look great right now so pics would not do it justice yet. Once I get a few things done I will post pics of the bad boy. I took the drivers door panel off today and one more build sheet was glued to it. I am in heaven. I have not had a good nights sleep since finding the car the other day. I am sure many of you guys understand finding a car you have always wanted in your favorite color with your favorite engine. Here are 2 shots of the build sheet I found today still glued to the drivers door panel.

You need to have your pictures hosted on a website somewhere, so you can link to them.

If you don't have a place on the Internet to host them, send them to me at fritz @ gigem . com and I will put them up on my web server...

We would love to see it just as it is, before you do any work. Any LS6 is worth a look in almost any condition. Your killing me, show it off!

Oh and welcome aboard.

Congatulations, what a find, a LS-6 that still needs restoring. I just got a 72 ElCamino SS350, with original paint, and #s matching motor, pretty nice driver but needs alot of work to be perfect.

Welcome, and wow, what a find. For some odd reason, I have always loved green musclecars. Please post some photos when you can, it sounds like a beauty from the buildsheet.

LMAO!!!!! THat has got to be some miracle paper that the build sheet was printed on. I mean to be glued to a dirty/rusted door panel and only have a few conveintley placed stains and "oh look at how old I am" tears!!!


Congrats on the new LS-6, is this by chance the one you've been posting ads for parts in the forums for the last 7 months!?:thumbsup:
