No problem, it's one of none.

The guy takes perfect pictures and then can't find the macro setting on the camera when he takes the shot of the protect-o- plate.

The VIN stamp on the engine appears wrong, the 10W... is 1OW, subtle, but it should be a zero not a letter. I saw that the rear code is CBW, which is a 4.10:1 code used on the deuces. However, that rear has been hit as well, the CBW stamping on the original cars is very unique - and this one is not even close. The fuzzy POP is interesting! Looks like a Sutliff car, they did get some cool stuff - but this car does not appear to be a legit L89.

Marlin,

Wouldn't a "CBW" indicate a special heat treated ring and pinion? Has there been any other documented examples of special COPO high performance rear ends (CBW, BV) in other than COPO cars? Also, I would have expected that all CBW axles would have been assembled in a few batches in the May (or later) time frame (not March)in anticipation of the Deuce production.

JMO It's not real.

Again in 20 years I am still waiting to see evidence of a real L-89 nova.
