Going thru and documenting everything on the L79 - outside of the smog everything is as it was when the car was bought new. Dates are perfect, original chalk just some very cool stuff.
The one thing that has me stumped is the distributor date. I know there were two distributors in 68 for the L79 - the (444) being the early version. Engine assembly date was Feb 20, 68 while the dist is dated July 21, 67. Could it be that this distributor just got cast aside when the new version was released (478) finally making it on to my car months later? The other question is if you were to get a service distributor would there be the paint stripe or was that an assembly line only practice to identify the distributors?
