Default WOW, Ebay is insane

I know this is sort of offtopic but I don't think many other gen corvette owners would be very interested in this... :crazy: :eek:

....that much and you can't even enjoy driving it without completely re doing all the mechanical parts. I'll save the picture and do the same as the owner will do. Stare at it and I get to do that for free

This IS for real. The car belongs to one of my buddies father's friends. the guy has some crazy valuable cars. He has something like 18 Corvettes. I believe he has 3 427 convertibles. He has a 5 car garage at his house, and he is just finishing building a new 10 car garage on his land. He also owns a "warehouse" to keep the rest of the cars. NUTS!!!! Nice to have $$$$. I wouldn't know.

....but yet he can't buy a decent f*%@ing camera?!?! Those pictures are horrible. My cheap (compared to his standards) $300 camera takes 100 times better pictures than that. I never understand people that can sell high price items like this that depend on seeing details in a picture and only show a handful of horrible, unclear, bad lighted pictures. I guess I just don't get it! Never will. :rant:

I didn't bid because it has bench seats and a column shift.

So what's the story behind the iron heads on an LS-6 motor??? This one's :bs :bs (BTW, I like the disclaimer that he is not responsible for the accuracy of the description--FOR $350,000+ HE BETTER BE!!!!)

I wish the new owner the best of luck!!

...in court, when he finds out he's been duped.

That motor came like that from the factory There Big port closed chamber steel heads 11.00 comp . The over the counter LS6 came with open chamber heads 10.25 comp.

Oops!! I went to school today! Yep, LS6 Chevelles DID have iron heads per:
http://www.ls6benchmark.com

I guess since the '71 LS6 Corvettes had aluminum heads I assumed same for the Chevelle.

OK, it MAY be real. :skep:

I personally don't get it. It is valuable because it has no mileage, so to keep it so, you can't drive it? Huh? What? Is it a painting or a car?

WOW....!!! I live in Johnston, R.I. I have an 82 collector for sale for a paltry 250,000 dollars! Any takers??? Any car from Johnston must be worth it.
