Default My 70 LS-6 project

Hi every one.
I'm Ian and thought I would stop by and introduce myself and the progress of my restoration of my 70 LS-6 .

If interested I have the photos of the day I got the car,disassembly and documentation of parts and progress thus far.

I would also like to say that there is a wealth of knowledge and respect for other members here that I didn't see at another famous Chevelle site where I got the "yellow bullet" treatment.

Look forward to sharing.

Welcome Ian,
Lots of help here on LS6 cars from people that really know there stuff.
I no longer post that much on Team Chevelle as i find this web site awnsers my question more quickly without the BS i find at the other place.
I did a thread on the rebuild of my LS6 motor last year and the guys here really helped me big time [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif[/img]

Post away and i will be glad to help.

Welcome Ian,

I just recently found sYc, and love it.

sYc is a very helpful, respectful, and exciting website.

There are some expert level 70 Chevelle guys asking for pictures, hit the fifth button from the left and show these guys what we are dealing with here. (advice is usually free but in this case these guys advice is priceless)

Ryan

I posted a few 79 LS6 pics from Floyd Garrett's Muscle car Museum to stave the 70 guys.

That LS6 has the incorrect repro cable holder clips that hold the hood pin cables.
They should be the 1/8 white clips not the brown ones that come in the repro kit.
Other wise correct and beautifull.
[img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/naughty.gif[/img] sorry for nit picking.
