Bought 70 L78 Nova w/ following codes sight unseen

[70ChevyGuy]

New guy to the site and by no means do I consider myself a serious collector (yet). I’m drawn to 70 Chevys; currently owning a beautiful 70 Nova SS clone and just bought what I hope be a very nice; matching 70 L78 Nova. No protecto plate or build sheet so I’ve spent several hours decoding everything within reason. Not having the time to travel half way across the country to inspect it myself, I located a Concours show judge/appraiser to inspect the car on my behalf before purchasing it (who rates it as a 950 point car and his guess is that it’s all “born with” and date correct). The car is being shipped sight unseen as we speak. I’m requesting anyone to scrutinize the following codes to further enlighten me, make me a fool or point out potential discrepancies. In return I promise to report back to you truthfully with several pic’s when it the car arrives.

One thing that strikes me as odd is the rear axle: I’ve been told by more than one Nova-Nut that the trim tag may have been issued early in this case and that it is quite likely the correct axle; especially considering that Willow run is 1 hr away from Detroit.

Have at it gents:
