Fathom Blue is the color. The red Nova lurking in the background is another L78 car. #'s matching Cranberry red, 4spd from Canada. But that's a story for another day.......

Bob, thanks for including us in the Member's Rides section. Just want to mention that my better half, Karen, is entitled to equal billing on this car and all the others. She is truly a "Nova Widow" and is very much a fan of all the great cars that are represented on this site.

Thanks again, Tom.

A little more info on the Marine Corp car: This car was at the Nova Nationals this past summer in Atlanta and earned a Gold class certificate, Best in Class and Best in Show. We decorated the car with Marine corp memorabilia and photos of the original owner. Karen and I are very grateful to Wayne Bushey and staff at National Nostalgic Nova and our friend Tony "the greek", for helping us with this project. We are planning on installing the original steel wheels and dog dish caps this spring. May bring this car to the York Show in July. Many thanks for all the kind words from this site we appreciate it.

Tom &amp; Karen
