667 made....50 of those were the Gibb COPO'S...rare as gold plated chicken lips, as my friend Eric would say. I have never seen another documented, original driveline 68 L78 Nova...other than the Gibb cars. Have talked to a few folks who say they have them....but

Hope you find one. I would like to know if anyone else in the SYC has one...it is definately a small club.

See attached, not a born with motor, but sounds nice with some paper.

I was wondering if you guys with L78 novas might know this answer...Ive had 3 1970 L78 novas in the past and was wondering if at the bottom line of the trim tag..in the middle is a letter A all by itself.....all three cars had the letter only in the very center of the tag...I know someone who has a 70 he is restoring and it has the A in the center bottom line and a A in crayon on the firewall...I only ask because I found another ss396 nova..original black..non original block...supposed to be a L78 car originally and has the A in the center bottom line...any clues?...Mike.

The letter A on the trim tag denotes Black painted interior trim. Earl
