A JH suffix denotes the L-78 396/375HP engine.
A JJ suffix denotes the L-89 Aluminum head engine. I don't think anoyone is being too critical here,just trying to understand what you are selling. You're quoted as saying:: "I AM SELLING MY 69 NOVA SS L-89 1 OF 311 427 ALUM HEAD L-78 ALSO WITH THE MATCHING L-78 HEADS"...$85,000.00 Later you say... the car is real wheather its a l-78 car or l-89 like i said at worst its a l-78 unrestored original jh block and the engine stamp is correct.so im not a chevy expert but i know its a matching numbers car." So now it's not one of the 311 made L-89's,nor even a 427 engine? When asked if this is the very same car for sale here,you said: "no its not the car i also have that car that one is not for sale" So you have two identical RG 69 Novas w/identical mileage and options,one for sale,and one not? |

Well, these guys weren't exactly kind to us when they scoured the car.
![]() Ralph, try to look at this in a different light. Like Schonye said, many of us look at an L89 Nova as the Holy Grail. If you had proof that one REALLY exists, you would be held in Extremely High Regard here. We're all just hoping to find a Unicorn! No offense intended. I hope it's real.

Ralph,
I am just an outsider looking in and have no interest in the car but one things for sure, when you come onto a forum (any forum) and advertise your car for free I might add, then you should expect a few questions and some critiquing. It comes with the territory. As many people have learned the hard way the experts on these sites can help you or they can hurt you in a very big way. Cop and attitude and it will follow you and your car for a very long time and if you do some research you will see what I mean. Many have asked you very sincerely for answers to a few questions yet you continue to skirt them. All I am trying to say is it sounds like you have a very desirable and possibly extremely rare car. You are coming here trying to sell your car. Let the people help you sell and don't belittle them for doing that very thing you are asking for. Anyone who shells out $85k is going to ask you these very same questions. If you answer them the same way you have here, don't plan on selling it too quickly. People that avoid certain questions are usually trying to hide something. If in fact this is the real deal, you will be VERY thankful that these guys educated you on the car and forced you to acquire documentation as your profit level will greatly increase so just be careful. ![]() Moral of the story, the guys here are trying to help you NOT bad mouth you but you are not giving them much of a chance. As has been said earlier, the Mopars and Fords have better records than the Chevrolets. That and the fact that cloned Chevrolets are at an all time high means people want straight answers and not BS. ![]() Nice collection by the way but I already told you that before. Rick

Ralph, You are getting alot of attention here for free! Especially for a FOMOCO guy. One of the chevy (experts,gurus) I know saw this car at Wildwood and thought that it was a very nice car, but the radiator support looked kind of different for a BB.
