Re: Is this a real L78????
Charley, I remember that car well from when I lived in Sacramento. What a great car it was with no frills and no console. I also saw it at the Vettefest one year, I think that the window sticker may have been separated from the car. Dave Simpson bought it from you, I think. The paperwork may have been lost. If I remember, the owner had a copy of the window sticker, but the orginal was gone. What a shame.

[ QUOTE ]
That car just screams "Car Craft Street Machine Nationals 1980." (Right Bruce?) Love the slots but the 'lines look good too. So, will it be a rotisserie resto or Day 2 car?  x 100 [/ QUOTE ] You got it Bill!   Nice car...and like Darren said...how are you going to 'restore' it...day 2 or???

Re: Is this a real L78????
I thought I recognized the description of that Chevelle Charley.
Dave S. & destroyed records are what I thought. I did see it once,and thought it was pretty nice.I never saw it again after Vettefest.

Re: Is this a real L78????
Pete, The original engine is long gone. When owner #2 bought the car in 1980 the original engine was out and at the machine shop. The shop wanted $2500.00 for work done at that time. Owner figured he could pick up another running B.B. for a fraction of the cost. As for future plans, its day 2 all the way. As for your comment Rick, today won't be the last time you see that car sideways.
