Re: 1968 COPO nova
I think the car was a Harrell tuned 396 car and not a 427 transplant...but I could be wrong. There is only one other red car found that I know of. The rear end was swapped out and put into a 69 Camaro. The motor and trans were blown up along time ago. But I was told the owner that drag raced the car has two trailers full of parts so some of the original stuff may still be around....who knows?

They look more like the foil insert type bezels to me; which would be '68 only.

Re: 1968 COPO nova
I think what brent is trying to say is 68 novas have clear lenses 69 novas had amber. But it does look like the correct foil badges.

So, what specifically made the non converted 396 Harrell Novas any different from the other L78's?(other than the heavy duty auto trans) Thanks
