Default Re: NOVA L79 WAGON????

Jenkins told us that he drove to N.Y. to look at a 66 wagon with the heavy duty towing package that consisted of a 327/350hp motor, 4 speed and posi rear. This was in the 80's when he had a non SS 66 350hp car that he was going to restore. I saw that 66 car Grump had. Said the wagon was original owner, but he wanted to much for it. He said to Pete and I that you could virtually get anything you wanted back then as long as you knew what to ask for and if you had a good salesman. Those wagons must exist.

The paperwork says that it was available, but as far as I know there are no documented examples. Sort of like LS7 'velles.

I never saw it I just know that Grump went to look at one in N.Y. Sometimes in the old days things were listed as heavy duty instead of high performance. (with the same options) He wanted to buy it but to expensive he said. I guess he lost interest and did sell his 66 non SS car he was going to restore. This was in the 80's.
