Possible 70 L78 Chevelle on eBay?

Note the hole below the tach, directly through the lettering for the wiper switch. These holes are factory-drilled on Monte Carlo dashes. So, the dash housing is not the original, and my guess is that the cluster and tach are also not the original.

I had two 72 Monte Carlos, they never had that hole drilled into the dash. What would it have beed used for ??

The Monte Carlos woodgrain metal dash inserts were held on with adhesive on some,or had holes drilled into certain areas of the dash to allow a metal tab to protrude through them and secure it.
This particular dash is not authentic for this early built Leeds 1970 Super Sport Chevelle.
The 1970 L-78 Chevelle was only produced roughly the first 100 days of production,before being discontinued completely.There are August/Sept.assembled examples still surviving,and some still by their original owners today.
Based on all the information & pictures the seller has relayed,this particular Chevelle is NOT one of them.At the very most it is an L-34 402/350HP Super Sport Chevelle only.
