'70 L78 Nova with Paper

[scuncio]

Thoughts on the window sticker? Unlike any font I have ever seen from the General. About the only thing I can say with any certainty is that it was born Fathom Blue, and still is. :-)

Red stripe tires were never available on a 70 Nova, 69 yes, 70 nope

So is it an l78?

Window sticker is a fake...small block radiator cover, 69 master, etc.

RPO L78 is a $316 item...

Of course all the changes with engine and tranny make this just a hotrod...

The trim tag confuses me....733 black bucket seat interior...ok. But the 'G' with the 3 has me confused. A black interior should be an "A'"...then the 3 would indicate 3 exterior trim items. The window brite trim and b/s moldings should be listed as 'exterior decor'...looks like it has drip rail as well.

I guess it doesn't really matter...if it runs and drives and you need a hotrod...and the price is right...

**wheel lip molding never happened on a Nova...borrowed from our friends at Buick no doubt.

No wheel lips on a Nova? I never realized that. What years does that apply to?

Thanks,

re: the repop window sticker....."Special-Purpose Suspension"???? Don't think I've ever seen that terminology used on any GM window sticker before.

The older versions had them I believe, but the 68-74 did not. The Buick Apollo did...maybe the Pontiac and Olds versions as well. Aftermarket sells them...
