Default Re: Another L89 nova with doc's

Well, this car belonged to a fellow I used to work with about 5 years ago. He had noticed my hot rods in the parking lot when I would drive them into work and mentioned that he once owned a "musclecar" new. He told me all about this car and mentioned that he even still had the window sticker and pictures of the day he bought it home. Sure.....I was very doubtful (especially the aluminum heads part) but I was in shock when he actually brought this stuff to work a few days later. I held that yellowed window sticker in my hand and read that "L89" clear as anything. I handed the pictures and W.S. back to him and a few days later he brought the pictures back to me and said that I could have them. I then asked about the sticker and he told me that I could even have that......next time he came across it. Well, unfortunately he never brought it back and I just had a very bad feeling that something happened to it. Trust me, I asked at least once a week about it for two years probably but it just never came back. It's a downer, but it is what is. At least I was fortunate enough to at least see it once. Sure.....some can call bullshit but I have nothing to gain by lying about it and enough people know me on here by now to know that I know what I'm talking about. Anyway, another interesting side note is that this is the ONLY "Musclecar" that Bill ever owned in his life and his brother had a '69 Z/28 that he purchased new. Bill told me that every time they raced, the '69 Z/28 would win because of his brother's better driving ability. I'd love to know the actual production #'s of these cars and I used to tell him that that he really did have a very special car that people still debate about if it was even actually produced!
