Mark, please understand that there are no known L89 Novas. I personally don't believe the blk car is, and I think the pics provided by Alan Forman in another L89 thread on the silver car tend to disprove it also. I sometimes wonder if those two cars have a connection as they both seem to have the same issue.
Mark, does the car still exist, or does anyone know where it is? How about the motor, trans, rear? If the gentleman who owned the car has the paperwork, and either has the car, or know where it is, you wouldn't be hasseling him. You'd be doing him a huge favor by telling him that he may have the "holy grail" car. And it, and/ or docs that prove beyond reproach, that it truly exists, could make him a famous/wealthy man.
The closest I've found is a guy who ordered a 69, and ordered the al heads the same time so he could have them changed out when the car arrived, because they couldn't order it with the heads from the factory. It was a day 1 al head car. But was sold with the heads separate.
Please understand, it's not you. If me, or Charley, or Howie said we'd found a L89 car, the same scrutiny would still apply.
Hell, and Heaven are intangibles. The depth of belief is up to you. Cars have docs, and original owners, and friends of the owner with stories to tell. If nothing else, the guy needed some L60's, cause that thing ain't gonna hook.
