WOW!
M-E-R-R-Y C-H-R-I-S-T-M-A-S my friend!
I grew up in Chester, Pa and my one of my best friends had the 69 Nova SS/L78 with the Turbo400...column mounted and vinyl floors WITH a bench seat!! It was Dark Green
He ran ALL the time at Cecil County in MD; C/SA. That thing would up-shift from 1st to 2nd by itself, then he manually upshifted it from 2nd to 3rd. GOD......I wish I knew if the car is still around. The owner back then was Bruce Graf
