Seeing that this is a US car, how would one determine that this was indeed a LEGIT L-79? If it was a Canadian car, you could get the correct documents from George, but this one????

Doing some research, seems doubtful that this is an L79 or can't be proven either way!

This is a reply from my email:

"I will have the trim tag pic soon. One issue I do have is the last owner still has to provide me with it. You can see in the pics there is no trim tag attached where it should be. He has assured me he does have it and it is a 2L cod e 4spd. Red with black buckets..
I did verify the vin matching number to the door pillar (fender side)
The 461 heads I believe to be off a '63 Corvette.
I know the 10 bolt should also be a 12 bolt as well. Everything else matches date code wise.
I bought 3 cars from the same guy about a month back and am fixing up a 69 Camaro instead.
I have attached the pics of the motor I do have.."

FYI. IF anyone is interested more, I will forward on the info and pictures to them.
