I am sure this car is just as original as the other L89 Nova. This will be the earliest car I have seen with the twin snorkel air cleaner and what looks to be a throttle rod instead of the cable. I do not remember seeing a four digit date code on a trim tag and the month being so far away from the rivet.

It looks to have 074 open chamber heads by the looks of the snowflakes. That would be a great combo with the L78 closed chamber pistons that I believe the engine should have in it.

I almost posted the same...I am pretty sure those are 074 heads,Look at the top of the cast area next to the exhaust port where the Winters Logo is, very flat, not like a 840/842 head. so much for the rare L89 option Is this the car that was on the Du Pont Registry some time ago

The trim tag looks odd. The interior painted color should be A for black. Not B for blue. The date is 03D. Why does it say 03D0? Earl

By seeing it in person Mark you put some questions to rest about if they existed or not. I never saw one but most guys never really new about an L89 anything back then. I think the only one I ever saw was the Stahl Chevrolet black nova from Jersey.

This is a nice tribute car, but that is all.
