Re: 69 Gibb L78 Nova
That core support thing is odd... I like the paint on the car, looks good...

Re: 69 Gibb L78 Nova
Tommy, I think you are correct about the rad support. I can't see a welded nut on the pas side but the angle of the pic might not show it.
I think Annie, and Helen had some nbrs from some of the hipo novas, and camaros. I wonder if this one shows up. It would be interesting to visit with the original owner.

Re: 69 Gibb L78 Nova
Annie does as does Howie I believe and I will have her take a look. There were lots of 68 paperwork but no so much of the 69. You never know though.

Re: 69 Gibb L78 Nova
That core support looks like a reproduction. The larger hole on the driver side is for AC hoses. The wider opening would also be correct for a 73-74 with heavy-duty cooling system and AC.

Re: 69 Gibb L78 Nova
I am trying to think where I heard of that Badbowties before. Jackson, NJ. is not far from Futureclassics in Lakewood. Verne Frantz and a few other members don't not live far from there I believe. Interesting car and a Gibb car none the less.
