Fresh off the phone with the fellow who owned both these 68,69 L78's.

1st the 68. Bought in 1972 with 13K miles from a guy who lived in New Hope/Crystal. Didnt know the colors name but said it was green almost silver in color. The prior owner was a mechanic at Sears who added the tri power, headers, warner gauges... The mechanic bought this car new at Merit Chevrolet. Door was dinged and the owner had it re sprayed and it didnt match so he had the whole car resprayed. Car was sold in 73 to a kid who lived in Elk River. Mileage at time of sale was 33K, sold for $1,500

The 69. Bought out of St. Paul, MN in 1971. Black paint, Black interior, buckets, 4spd.

This guy also owned a bunch of other cars including a 65 Chevelle 327/350 L79. 300 deluxe sedan. Owned it from 66-67, dark green, 4spd, bench, rubber mats, lgt brown interior. Ran 13.2's in 66.

Also owned another 68 Nova 327/325hp bench.
Bought new, 67 Camaro SS 350

Hope the info on the L78's is helpfull. I can ask any additional questions as well.
