Allen's car has -- as the color code on the trim tag. I had a orange 1968 SS350 Nova about 25 years ago that had the original orange paint still on the car but I never bothered looking at the trim tag.

Rick, if you go to the 2nd page under tech/resto discussion, theres a thread on the -- nova of Alan's along with some pics. We have the car at our shop for the resto.

Welcome Rick, where in MD are ya?

Re: L-78 Nova fan spacer
 

Welcome aboard Rick. We've all seen inaccuracies in magazine articles so it's no big deal to most of us. Although, many of the members here (me included https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/crazy.gif) get pretty picky on details. That's one of the blessings/curses of this hobby. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/grin.gif But the overall plus side of this place is the people and the endless information and learning potential it offers.

Nice Nova! https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/beers.gif

Hi and thanks Jason, Yeah its me and I missed your company at last years show, I was hoping to see that 68.

Thanks ORIGLS6,
I agree about picky details and having a site like this with members that are so informative is great.

Thanks Marlin,I'm in Gambrills, Md.

Re: L-78 Nova fan spacer
 

The -- code for paint would have been for a special order color like the hugger orange and like I thought it wasn't avaliable on a nova in 69 unless ordered. That is some real neat stuff being uncovered on the car and thats the kind of things I like to see and hear about, like a history lesson of sorts. Really neat car Alan hope to see it when its done.

My '69 Nova SS spent most of it's early life in the Kent Island area - so I'm always trying to find folks that neck of the woods who might remember it. The K.Island owner met a tragic end in Stevensville several years after selling the car to a guy in Cambridge. Now it's in PA! https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ns/naughty.gif

Re: L-78 Nova fan spacer
 

Cool! Another Nova guy is added to the long list! Welcome aboard!

Re: L-78 Nova fan spacer
 

I had a co-worker that lived in stevensville and spent many summer days at cookouts and never heard anything and I go to a car show at the western auto put on by the kent island cruisers and never heard anything there either but I will ask now that I know and maybe I can find out some info if you don't mind marlin.
