You know with that amazing story I think the L88 is right at home in the Nova! I would keep it as an L88 Nova with a hell of a tale!!

Price sure seems fair. Car looks fantastic, engine is worth a fair amount of coin on its own merits.

If you are going to swap out the L88 what is it going into?? Got a spare L88 Vette lying around that need an engine?

If I read this correctly, this Nova has an original #'d L88 Vette engine in it now? To the owner of that Vette, I'd say that the Nova is a nice freebie in this deal, as the original engine is worth close to a $50K bump, is it not? It sounds like the buyer has the perfect trading material (dated L78) to trade for the original engine. The car is cool as hell as well. Sounds like a slam dunk if everything goes right.

Thats why john bought the Nova, he wanted the drive train. The great condition Nova car with premium paper work was a bonus to him.
