Re: Jody Schmeisser`s Newest L79 Nova Chevy II

Re: Jody Schmeisser`s Newest L79 Nova Chevy II
What a great car! They built fewer than 1800 L79 Nova Sport Coupes in 1966, so it's way rarer than the L79 Super Sport. Just for info, the 4 speed tranny would also have been an option. Chevy II L79's came standard with a 3 speed on the column. There were no L79 automatics. Does it have the F40 HD suspension? Many didn't. It would also have been an option.

Talk about a sleeper [/ QUOTE ] 5481 total L79 Chevy II's were built in the U.S. in 1966. 3547 were Super Sports, approx. 200 two door sedans, and a few wagons. Leaves just under 1800 Sport Coupes like this beauty. There were 195 L79 Chevy II's built in Canada, of which approx 90-100 were SS's. They were also 63 Acadian L79s built by GM Canada. Bob

Re: Jody Schmeisser`s Newest L79 Nova Chevy II
John,
Great info...Thanks. Yes... Jody`s car is eqiupped with the F40 HD Suspension...I read it myself on the Bill of Sale. So this would make 4 options....4 speed tranny, F40 HD suspension , tinted front windshield and push button radio. Dan.
