69 L78 Nova

[92646]

The ad was cheap and I had to borrow money from my wife to buy the car. I have not seen a car with better panel fit, paint and body work. There are some little issues with the car like not having the original motor or trans. I have never had a car that drives better and has been this well put together. But I have not heard the end of it since I brought the car home on a trailer. Now she gets to see that I am trying to make her happy and it has been quite around the house since. She is my second wife and my kids are still young. I do not think it will sell and I am thinking about getting one of those ads that last for 60 days or more and keep renewing it so there is piece in the house. Rob knows of a another Nova out here in California but it is hard to give up the chase for the right car.

I've been watching the auction, best of luck with the sale - and for keeping the peace at home

I especially liked the self professed 'expert' that felt the need to share his knowledge with you via the q&a feature on ebay!

""saw auction.when you cloned this car did you get the right crossmember.hard to fine. most people dont know the difference between a 350 and 396 cross member.80000 miles means the original engine was gone 30 years ago.im a expert on the 69 396 /375 car and the 66 327/350 chevy11 questions and answers tony""

I liked that one too.

The Nova in the auction is cool.... I can see what my car would look like with the steel rims!

This guy e-mailed me twice more. I started out one of my responses with the question of what color was the sky in his world. But I thought about it, then changed my mind and just thanked him for his observations. This could have been me 25 years ago if somebody told me that GM installed 427 motors in a 1969 Camaro because I never saw one in California.

Boy he really stepped out there didn't he.... So if your an expert on the 69 don't you also have to be an expert on the 68 and the 70 ... Super nice Nova, best of luck with the sale .

Mark, That is really a great looking car, good luck whatever happens.

[YENKO DEUCE REGISTRY]

Yep, nobody ever figured out the differences betw/ a SB vs. a BB xmember

[Schonyenko2]

Nice shifter hole. Can you say vertigate.

[Xplantdad]

Good luck on both fronts Mark! Say hi to that D. Wilson guy for Lynn and I!
