Default Black 70 LS6 lands in the Pacific NW

I'm going to need to be more specific, because I know that at least TWO black LS6s have landed out here in the last couple of weeks. One is the car that was listed here and Chad just delivered to a collection in Sumner, WA. The second is a car many of you saw at MCACN 2019. Its a subtle but achingly gorgeous Black/Red/blk vinyl top no cowl induction/no stripes car. My friend fell in love with the car and the quality of its restoration, and got on well with its owner, so arrangements were made to transfer ownership. Thus it is now in the collection of Gary and Bernie McKay in Tacoma, WA and is featured in a corner of the main collection by some orange Camaro with odd stripes. As you can see, everything kind of has to fight for attention in this room. The Chevrolets are making a stand in what used to be a Ford stronghold, lol.

(Like others, I tried to flip the pics in iPhoto to correct, but no dice-the site seems to want them upside down! Sorry..)

I like that Garage, I could set up a cot and sleep there all weekend. Considering my name (GILMORE) is in neon lights on the wall, I wouldn't technically be crashing.

GILMORE shining over matching open and closed 63 340hp Corvettes does seem like it was destined to be your personal B&B, Tim.

Also, this LS6 has a neat backstory but I need to write it down properly before I post. I don’t want to put bad info up out of memory. Thanks for the photo fix Mr.70! Any tips on how I can avoid the upside down thing or is it likely a function of my computer?

Great collection and loving the room. I have a thing for Oil & Gas collecting as well. Thanks for the pics.
