This is a members car

Shhh- I traded for this car recently and it just got delivered last week. It was a very fair deal with a great guy but it's still more of a project than what I have time for. I started checking out some of the local shops here in Southern California. It seems that everyone I have talked to have their kids going to USC and they want me to pay for their tuition. I was hoping the car could find a home before anybody noticed. The truth is I need to find a complete car because I just do not have the time for a big project any more. I wish Stefano would take this in trade for his complete L-78 nova.

Jerry's doing Novas now? Wow!

BTW, you'll need the underhood thingys for the SS hood grilles as that hood is not an original SS version. Someone liked their toggle switches eh?

http://contact.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...llerQuestion_VI I was reading the questions on the car as it was running on ebay , is it true that the L78s all had an A on the trim tags as stated and what does the A signify ??

[SuperNovaSS]

I particularly like this question:

Q: saw rolling chassis on ebay auction..what i saw indicated that it was a normal 350/SBC. 99% of the 3700/396-375 HP70 novas had 355 gears,bench seats and rubber floor matts. In 1970, the guy who ordered the 396 cars could not afford to pay $265.oo for bucket seats, $100.for console, $90. for gauges,when the blue collar worker at the time could barely afford the $316. option for the engine.If he could afford this option and the extra options such as the seats, he wouldn't have been in the market for a nova in the first place. He would have been in the market for a Camaro or Corvette.This is the reason that any adult that owned a nova in the day does know bacially this concept.This Jerry Macneish obviously has never owned a real car in his life.He must be caught up in the Barrett Jackson fairey tale.If you want to know any real facts about 66, 69 or 70 cars just give me a call.

I also like Mark's answer. Do you think he really was thankful? I would really like to have one of those 1 out of 100 Novas with bucket seats and carpet.

A: Thanks Tony for your input.

King, "A" usually signifys an exterior trim option/combination. Marlin knows the "A" code stuff pretty well

Indicated the exterior trim level I believe, as in A 1, A 2 etc. My 70 Nova has only an A, and basically has no exterior trim except bright work around the windshield and rear window.

Mark,
I just read this post. Sure I consider trades. The only L78 Nova I have left has no docs as well. I do feel that you can't buy your car/parts and make it look like the one I have for less than what I am asking, unless you do all the work yourself

[92646]

Stefano, what is the best way to contact you? Marlin thank you for the response. You have no idea how much I appreciate it. With Camaros all you have to do is open a book to find most of this information but not with a Nova.
