Looks like someone back then found a very closely dated 1970 (OTC or L78 Camaro-Nova) 4 bolt main L-78 CKO block,then unevenly re-stamped this LS-3 Malibus VIN into it.
Needless to say,Oshawa never assembled any 1970 L-78 vehicles,plus the Oshawa cowl tag doesn't even call out the RPO Z-25 Super Sport option.
But credit to the seller for not trying to say it's a Super Sport or an L-78,just that it's block is a generic original CKO 375HP block,and no reserve either.
