The brochure I just received from RM Auctions states "8000 mile documented actual miles! Factory L78 car from Texas equiped with a 396 cu. in. V8 with 375 hp and 4 speed trans. This 3 owner car comes with documents inclide notarized mileage, verification statements and protect-o-plate"
The colour could be either black or dark blue since the brochure quality isn't that great.
Also for sale at this auction is a 1969 COPO 9560 ZL1 Camaro. Ita car #62 Red/Red!!!!! [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

ï An extremely rare 1970 Chevrolet Nova SS396 L78 ñ
with 375 horsepower, this four-speed version with only
8,000 documented actual miles was sold new in Texas
and has had just three owners.

ï Another rarity, this 1969 Chevrolet Camaro ZL1, the
most powerful model Chevrolet produced for sale to the
public, sports a factory all-aluminum 427 cubic-inch
V8 that makes more than 500 horsepower and is car #62
of the 69 produced. It is also the only ZL1 produced
in red with a red interior.
