Thanks Dennis, thank you Ken, and thank you Charlie and anybody else that takes my word. It's not like I'm trying to make a buck or anything. I even explained to him that "You know, you owned a car that is so rare, people doubt that they were even built. It's kinda important that you bring that sticker back in!" You don't know how bad I wish I just would have Xeroxed(copy machine 2 rooms away!) it and been done with it. The car's been gone for a long time, he only owned it for a couple years and sold it a long time ago back in the early '70's. Now, L-89 stuff aside, I think it was really a good looking car with the Dark Blue/Light Blue Bench interior and dressed up with the factory white pinstripe and Rally wheels on it. It seems like everyone you see restored today gets dog dish hubcaps or the SS-type wheels. Does anyone know how many of these Novas got Rally wheels like this? Just kinda curious.

Mark, the rally wheels were RPO ZJ7 and available on all model Novas in 1970. Your right, you do not see them on many.. Most all of the SS Novas had the dog dishes or the 5 spoke SS wheels.. I know the cost was extra for these wheels which probably did not make it too appealing for the guy who was buying the car to race and not for style...

Most 70 SS Novas that I have seen the rallys on had the exterior decor package, lower body sills, bright aluminum trim around the windows, pin striping etc.... Unknown how many had the rallys though.. I don't think there is any way to calculate that because of the availability of the option..
