The car had a radio here at one time. But advertised as original condition?
Again I say huh?????

“Absolutely pristine condition....Must see to believe!!!!!!”
Then what happened to the ignition shielding? Is it in safekeeping?

Why do you believe this is the same car? The VINs seem to state otherwise...
EDIT: I see the link now. I think he is providing that so you can see how much LS6s go for.

I am sick and tired of all the false information being spread around by uninformed sellers / owners of these so called LS6 Corvettes. I've been involved with the LS6 survey since 1987 and the facts stated are hogwash.

Both LS6s. The barrett Jackson one has a radio? HUH?
And the one in the ebay ad is in original pristine condition but has the wrong carb, and missing ignition shielding?
Yep at first I thought the same car. But does two wrongs make a right?

LOL! I had a chance to buy a honest-to-god complete running original '69 L-88 several years ago for $2500. THAT is one I have buyer's remorse about.

By the way, I do believe non U69/U79 cars still had the ignition shielding brackets, since those are secured with the intake manifold bolts. They seem to be missing as well.
Goodnight!
