Where did the Lemans Blue RS/ZL1 go? 2 years ago that car would probably have brought 1.5, regardless of price its one of the most significant cars to ever come off a GM production line, and congrats to the new owner!

I had no idea Dave was the third owner of that car? I knew Fuller owned it until the late 80s because I have the Muscle car magazine article. Maybe Charley was right and I do live under a rock?

Yep, Fuller sold it to Gary Esse - who owns Madison Classics, the people that put on the Jefferson/Elkhorn/Waukesha show/ swap meets. I remember the car from when Gary had it on display in his showroom and at a few Jefferson shows. I forgot how good the docs are for the car, even got a great letter from Gary to Dave describing how the convertible top had only been down once for 10 min for the Super Chevy show. Of course, Mecum's guys put the top down and left it down for a week so I'm going in to the shop today to hit it with the steamer to get the wrinkles out!

Mr. Corner,
What docs came with the Fuller LS-6 car? The owner history and document history was not listed in the auction description.

Quamo aka Juggernaut:

Fuller car has the original window sticker, original dealer invoice, POP, warranty book, 3(?) build sheets, etc. Basically every slip of paperwork. Fuller, from my understanding, drove the car for about 11 months and then mothballed it. Dave had Mark Scalpone take off the original belts, hose, tires, trans modulator, and waterpump to prep the car for a few passes at SCR9 (or was it SCRX?)... all the original items are in a box in the trunk. I almost had a heart attack when the truck driver delivered the car last week and "didn't know nothin' about no old tires"...of course, I found them in the front of his trailer and he replied "oh, dem is fo' yo' caa? Dem jus' some ol' REPRODUCTION polyglas tires, ain't they?" Thank God Dave had the preseence of mind to label them as "original tires black LS6"

Heck, the undercoating is still on the original tail pipes. Only issue is she is leaking coolant from somewhere, looks like a heater hose so I need to investigate. OK, I better get back to steaming the top out now.

Hey, next time you visit your Supercars in my shop you can take a closer look! Bring your Lactaid, and I'll buy the butter burgers and Sprecher root beer at Solly's

Colin
