Zoomin I don't believe it sold at that price. The White 70 LS5 that SOLD at BJ for 24k now on Hemmings for 39k.

I just found this on a local Craigslist. Paid $25,000 for it. 1970 LS5, Marlboro Maroon, matching numbers, saddle interior, very original car but one repaint. Runs and drives fantastically. Needs a weekend of cosmetic TLC. Trim rings look incorrect to me, gotta research that. Anyway, it'll be fun to pretty up.

That's a ton of car for the money! I'll never figure out why Camaro's and the like fetch so much more.

Find new roads

yeah , I agree. A $25,000 Camaro needs another $25,000 to make it look as good as a $25,000 Vette. I don't get it either, but I'm just fine with it. I like Vettes, I don't like Camaro's. They can have the Camaro's!

That's good news actually. $22,000 is stupid low.

What a cool story - would love be to hear more details. How was it found, and of course some pics.
