Beautifull Car, Great Documentation, Great Colors !!! A Very Nice restoration and very little to pick on !!! Only a couple of small things that I see in the picts. He is Not Off the money at all with all it has going for it. My red LS-6 Convertible sold at Barrett-Jackson just before the peak for $475,000.00 ending up at $513,000 with the fee's . There were more like 90 or so built so his 20 number is way off. I can list over 20 that I personally know in a minute. A Low Production sought after car like this will always command the Right money regardless of the Worlds Happenings.

I'm not up on Canadian built cars but how does a Baltimore built car have a GM of Canada build sheet?
The car was shipped from the Baltimore plant to Canada when it was new. You can get GM of Canada documents on US built GM cars that were sold in Canada when they were new. It's not a build sheet like you are used to seeing. In my opinion, it is better than a build sheet.

No Convertibles built in Canada all were exported in !!! I have had several 70 SS converts that were sold new in Canada !!!! Just for the record I have video and audio of me smokin the tires all the way down the street in mine just the way it was sold !!!! The best burnout was driving it to the transporter taking it west !!!!!

Thought OSHAWA built the Canadian cars and they had a more specific trim tag ? NO ?
So this car would have both a Baltimore build sheet and a GM of Canada sheet too?

GM Canada paperwork applies to Canadian built cars/trucks( could be sold in US) or Sold in Canada cars/trucks.(could be built in US) Trim tag codes ie: Z-15 etc.. info only applies to Canada built only.

If there ever was an LS6 convert out there to get your hands on. This would be it since there is true documentation to go along with it.

For half a million dollars, it should have the right manifolds and washer bottle on it, amongst other problems.
I noticed the manifolds are dated 1968
The washer bottle has the low fluid indicator...not sure if the bottle is different for that option.

IMHO and experience,the Canadian docs trump the little issues.
Ever notice all the wrong details on the Ray Allen car and what it sold for...even on the 2nd time around ;)
