Default Re: Value of '69 L78 Nova

The L78 setup in the Nova was basically identical to the Chevelle and Camaro...with a few exceptions (engine fan, cowl air cleaners, etc.)all of the bolt on engine components and internals were the same..

So, if you need date coded hi-perf parts you will pay a premium because you are competing with folks chasing parts for the other two cars. A 4346 carb or 499 distributor isn't worth less because you are installing it in a Nova...just look at the parts for sale on this site or on Flea-Bay and the answer is clear. Novas may not command the premium that Camaros and Chevelles do...but the parts cost just the same.
