Gotta agree . . . . . . I really like the car also but these bullshXX stories that these owners/dealers/whoever cook up are just beyond ridiculous. But what a cool car: great color (to some people), aluminum Rat Motor with a 4-Speed and even air conditioning . . . . . . what a fun summer car that would be!

QUOTING THE EBAY AD: "Looking at the vin number which starts with 1142794, leads us to believe this could be one of the 3 mystery Nova cars reportedly built with a ZL1 All Aluminum 427 engine....we don't have any paperwork so we can't be positive this really is one of those "Mystery" Nova ZL1 cars."

Another 1 of NONE!! [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/bs.gif[/img] [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/bs.gif[/img] [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/bs.gif[/img] [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/bs.gif[/img]

What is it with these people?? [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/rolleyes.gif[/img]

Maybe I am wrong, but to the best of my knowledge there was never (3) rumored ZL1 Novas ever thought to have been produced. I guess it is such a mystery that noone knows about it.

Moron sellers like this really tarnish true history by applying such a thick layer of bs over what is known and truthful.

I don't see what the big problem is..I know there were definitely 3 of these cars produced...I have one [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/wink.gif[/img]...Tibor has the other and this guy on Ebay has the 3rd. I know mine is real, because I bought it from Cumby [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/beers.gif[/img] and Kenny got his from Howie [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/cool.gif[/img]

Anybody else who says they have one is a re-stamper [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/smile.gif[/img]

And...as a bonus...they include a picture of a Chevelle in the ad as well! (Notice the stripes and the bumper pad...or this might be their one of one Novachevelle)

I also like how they show a restored ZL-1 engine in the first photo, then WAY down in the other photos they show what the engine in this Nova actually looks like, which isn't even close to the first photo.
