Let's stick to the facts regarding the Nova. There was a statement that the car had / has docs? If it does great, I'd know that I sure would like to see them. As far as Vince Emme verifying the Nova.....I'd like to see that too?

I have seen that document to verify the car as one of the 37 or so L78 Novas on the Yenko Sports Cars Inventory Sheet. I have no doubts that it is one of those Novas. I see nothing to verify the car as a 427 Conversion?

There have been other such Nova's on the same list, which were never converted.

Where is Marlin when you need him? I'll defer to those who have much more knowledge that me in this matter.

I see that they added a link for the docs for all the cars but the L89 ragtop. I guess the absence of docs speaks for itself on that one.

Just back from a week of Jr Dragster racing in Bristol, TN!!

Yes, that green Nova was previously owned by Gregg Joseph who sold it in the summer of 2010. Car was originally sold out of V.V. Cooke in KY, and (per my failing memory...) was found by Mitch Moore and Mick Price - I believe still in original paint in full 427 regalia. I've seen the pre resto pics that Joe Grom from Chevy II Only has, pretty cool car. Like most of the '69 Y-Novas, I don't think this car has any bullet proof doc's to prove it was a 427. I think that Suydam's Y-Nova is the only one that has Yenko paper stating the car was a 427 from new. I have a window sticker from another car, but it's not been found to my knowledge.

Stefano, sorry about any confusion concerning what I said about &quot;original docs.&quot; I assumed it was a known car and don't know all of the intricacies about the converted versus non-converted cars.

There have been other Novas which had similar info and believed by some to be converted 427 Cars, which later turned out to have been, non converted, based on info shared by original owners.

I had just never seen any proof that this particular Nova had been converted.

A letter from Vince stating that, based on the records he has it recieved a 427 conversion, would go a long way, IMHO.
