27? Mile LS6
Does anyone know what happened to that low mileage Chevelle that was around a few years ago? It popped up with and changed hands several times in a short time and then seemed to go away. More curiosity, maybe someone here owns it or knows what happened to it. Don't recall the exact mileage but it was under 50 miles for sure.

If this is the car, it's in The Brothers Collection

Thats the one, looks like it has accrued about seven miles in all these years since it sold. I recall numbers north of $300k and then it seemed to trade hands a couple times for less each time. what do you think the car is worth today? I love the imperfect stripes and all those little things that it came from the factory with, pretty cool, thanks for sharing the video.

Bill, must have been a great car to own. I recall it being in Massachusetts at one point, maybe Milford MA but never saw it. I suspect it won't be going anywhere anytime soon.

----Would have been great to own, but I didn't. I can't go into specifics about who owned it when I drove it.....Bill S

Bill, the original owner was Jennings B. Summerour from Forest Park Georgia. He also owned my 1000 mile 68 Biscayne L72. He bought the Ls6 for his wife. I spoke with his wife back in 2017. She told me that he hardly drove the two cars. Both the Ls6 and Biscayne were sold from east point Chevrolet in east point Georgia. When Anthony Owned the car my friend Jeff put a low mileage smog system back on the car. I think at the time it had around 25 miles on it. Jennings owned a trucking company. He drag raced a 55 Chevrolet and a 62 409. He passed away back in 89.

----When I lived on the Cape I used to sell Tony Corvette parts. He was one of the most fastidious collectors I've ever known. I was delivering some stuff one time and he was in the back of his station with a brand new 75 or 76 Corvette up on the lift. he was taking it all apart to bring it up to his standards. The car only had about 10 or so miles and he was virtually restoring it.....Bill S |

Your friend Skeeter, or Cooter? who found the car said that the original owner drove it home from the dealership and parked it in his garage to race prep it and he only got as far as removing the smog system, but it was still present sitting on a shelf in the garage. I believe there was a low miles Biscayne in the garage as well.

----I drove this LS6 from 12 up to 16 miles back in around 1977! It was in Louiseville at the time but I believe it originally came out of either South Carolina or Georgia. Later it spent quite a while in Rhode Island....Bill S
