This weekend's Indy 2024 auction saw a 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle SS 454 LS6 Convertible set a new record for the nameplate at $600,000 (not including fees). However, the LS6 was among the exceptions.
Introduced in 1967 as the performance option for Mopar-blooded buyers, the R/T (Road/Track) mark of excellence (read that as ‘burnin’ rubber ‘till the sun don’t shine’) was aborted at the end of 1971.
