L79
This is is very nice car, and represents the flip side of the coin to my car, which was examined pretty hard over at Steve's Nova site. This one has all the correct components, without a shred of evidence that they are from the car in question ( as of this post) ., If they in fact do "match" do they match the car, or match each other, or have any paper to verify that it left the factory as an L79 ?
My car has none of the original L79 drivetrain, but has documenation as the last L79 to roll off the line in Oshawa in 1966, not to mention it is a 100 series sedan. I find it interesting to see the posts from those who think that mine is no longer an L79. What do you call this one when it likely began life as a regular smallblock car ?
For the record, mine was bid to the reserve, but with no bidder history I cancelled the bid and may have thrown a real buyer overboard. I have not followed up on any post auction offers as I plan to enjoy it this summer. But with falling Canadian $ I might still change my mind.
