Default My 1968 L78 Nova!!!!!!!

I purchased this car a few months agao. It's not numbers matching but, very few of them are. It is an unrestored 41k mile 1968 L78 Nova. Has a date code correct 396 4 bolt main block, and #840 casting heads, L88 solid cam, Winters aluminum intake, Hooker big tube headers, MSD ignition, line lock, Hayes street/strip clutch, factory 4.10 posi rear, traction bars, frame connectors, and 10" wide rally wheels out back! With drum brakes and no power steering, it makes this Nova a true muscle car!!!
