L78 Nova...
A beautiful car...very nice details. The selling price is above a Gibb car or Deuce...wow! Must have been some serious bidding going on.
If this was an 11k mile car with the original owner until a couple of months ago...it was obviously restored at some point. Judging by the photos...it would appear to be fairly recent. I would like to know who did the work, they did a nice job. I would also love to see what it looked like before the resto. The documentation is impressive...those are the only other L78 Nova chassis and body broadcast sheets I have ever seen, except for mine. Paperwork calls for rally wheels...and the white letters were not a Nova option. Again...a beautiful car. This seems like a new benchmark for the L78 Nova...maybe I should have kept a few  -wilma

Look close. Were Novas exempt from smog rules? Agree it looks good, but this price level needs a microscope IMHO.

Never saw a Nova with the Red Oxide undercarriage, usually Blk with color overspray. Car was "fluffed" at least. IMO, the docs pushed the price higher than market

1970 L78 Nova..
This is in response to the last two replys;
-Novas were not exempt from smog...this car should have the AIR system with plumbing, pump, etc. All high cars with solid lifters required smog. If you look close at the engine pics the manifolds appear to be 'non-smog'. -as for the red oxide primer...our survivor 70 L78 has red primer...the car got Zeibart when new...I have cleaned off a little on the bottom and the red oxide is there. Our car was built in the same time frame as this car [Dec/69] -wilma
