Re: 1970 L89 NOVA

Re: 1970 L89 NOVA
while Burr is still here I'll post that he doesn't ever remember any L89 Nova's. The 2 I were thinking of were both iron head 396. The interesting one he does clearly remember is a '69 L89 El Camino that ended up being totaled with 268 miles on it just outside Rimersburg, PA. Car went to Sharon Auto Wrecking.

Re: 1970 L89 NOVA
I understand your position Chuck, and I agree with you. Yenko and Johnson certainly were not rookies when it came to ordering special combinations.
This particular car has more potential for being real than any other story I've heard - so we'll have to wait and see, so far it looks promising. The best answer would be that it's an unknown COPO #

Re: 1970 L89 NOVA
