Yep original LS6 never restored. Has a few chips of paint out of the white SS stripes and the chrome trim is alittle pitted in areas. Its developing a rust spot behind the right rear tire under the car, from my dad who used to drive it every day year round even in the snow. Best part is I got the car free from him. You can bring your bottle ill bring the torque.

Yes but what most of you guys fail to remember is that is on stock rubber on stock sized tires. My rims are much wider and have better tires. Which are great for big clutch dumps.
