71LS6/ZR2 on eBay ?
Blue 71 LS6 on eBay that the seller says that it has ZR2 "features". Warren or anyone else know anything about this 71 ? Is it even a LS6?

It is not a factory built LS6 Corvette.

Tough call Warren... Took maybe five seconds, tops, right?
Hopefully (for my sake), it won't show up on the judging field at some point with a new owner. Fortunately, the folks spending that kind of money seem to be doing their due diligence these days.

No one owning a REAL LS6 would ever consider selling that car on eBay...

There's a second one for sale on there that has the docs that say it is.

I can see what the attraction might be, with a $100,000 premium!

Are you referring to the Gold one? That auction is a little strange in that they took pictures of pictures. Why not take good pics of the real car?

Yes, that's it. The close up pix of the spec plate on the console looked rough. I swear, if you're going to ask 150 large, can't you do some detailing?

It must have had a ton if work done to it, considering it sold on eBay a few months ago for $56K...

Hey that's my old car and fuzzy pic's of me getting it judged. One of the nicest REAL, ORIGINAL MOTOR LS6 cars with REAL PAPERWORK out there.
Here's a better pic of a 57,000 interior car. I don't know why the other looks the way it does.

I guess I would say, cant you at least take better pictures? This looks like crap.

Oh I take great pictures but like I said "its my OLD car". I don't own it anymore. A real buyer for a REAL LS6 car will go view a multiple NCRS Top Flight 97% point plus car anyway. Its just a simple advertisement to get it out there. I'm sure the current owner would be more then happy to email photos. Ebay doesn't give you enough pictures to accurately show this level of car.
