Thanks,
OK fine. I wonder how his dash ended up with white script. My '70 SS has green on the dash, heater and radio.

It's not white, it's green. Many times the green tint is not distinguishable in photos, even on ebay photos, which is why most people will actually reference the 'green' tint.

We're just bustin your chops on this one You aren't the first person to mistake this silver bullet for a wanna-be, and you won't be last. Since you took it so well, you can reply first to the next person who makes the accusation!

Welcome, and tell us about your NovaSS.

Also, this is the first time I have heard of a COPO Nova going up to Canada.

I believe it is one of 2 non-Yenko COPO Novas built in 1970, both of which went North across the border...which is good, because the original factory paperwork is still available, and attainable, on the Canadian cars. Unlike the rash of clone cars in some recent mags, this car is the real deal...

Well, obviously a VERY rare one indeed.
I am the second owner of my Nova SS. Bought it off the original owner back in '89 who coincidently ordered it from Central Chevy in Canada also. It's pretty much original. 350 - 300HP 4-Speed, w/4:10 12 bolt. The 1st owner Drag raced it for a while up in Canada when new and then proceeded to travel all across the Western US in it. He was a Tool and Die maker for Borg-Warner. That's how I came upon it. I worked with Him at one of Borg's divisions. Earlier this year I decided to do a full restoration on it so having a good source of information and feedback during this process is important to me. I want the car to be correct so I will be bouncing my thoughts off you guy's from time to time.
Thanks in advance.
