Stefano -

This may not be the car you are seeking info on but there can't be too many Fathom Blue L78 converts roaming around. This is the 2nd one located in Des Moines that has hit ebay in the last 30 days (2 different owners). The red one on this thread being the other. This owner has a couple of other nice ones listed on ebay as well. I may have to take a peek at these cars next weekend.

That is the car. So is anyone intimately familiar with this L78?

This statement from the Ebay auction

[ QUOTE ]
<font color="blue"> This is 1 of 6 known and documented L78 cars that exist today. </font>

[/ QUOTE ]

Is it meant for only L78 verts or all 70 L78 Chevelles? I know of a black 70 L78 Chevelle with POP and other Docs and that car hasnt been out for years.

Jeff,

I too have seen this "1 of 6" used a bit. I have always interpreted this to mean the 'verts only. I am confident that there are quite a few more L78 coupes accounted for. Rick (Mr70) will chime in as he is collecting docs for all '70 L78s.

The one of 6 is an old number. There are more L78 convertibles accounted for today. Just like when 12-13 was the number for LS6 Rag Tops.
