Here is a numbers matching 396/375hp 4sp white with red int. I added the red wheel for looks and a previous owner added the black stripes.

Nope. I had that discussion more than once.lol It left GM that way. Had plenty of paperwork and a know history, I guess it just slipped through.

Now that is nice and I am not a real big fan of white but it is killer with the red interior.

I have argued the Malibu trim for years as well and have some VERY early shots of a couple of LS6 Chevelles with this same trim. The owners swear it came from the factory that way and I believe it did as well. GM made mistakes all the time so I think it would be very possible.

It is to bad that GM did not put the rocker trim as standard trim on the Super Sport cars as it would have added a nice flare of chrome along the bottom and it blends in pretty well with the wheel well trim.
I guess GM would goof up once in awhile putting it on a super sport car once in a blue moon [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif[/img]

Great pics guys! I have a friend I bought a 1969 SS350 Camaro from a few years back. A guy by the the name of Eric Mann who has restored numerous Chevelles in his spare time. This guy knows his stuff! Check out these videos from youtube and see for yourself. Enjoy!

There was a 1970 L78, Forest Green with Saddle Interior, 4 Speed in Hemmings for 140K a few weeks ago. Looks like the AD is gone. Wonder if it sold ? Or was one of these two cars ?
