Ok, I know I am open to all kinds of opinions both good and bad. However, it seems to me that this site has more experts than any other site. I am about to finish a rotisserie restoration on my 1970 L78 Nova SS. The car has the vin on the engine and transmission. However, I have not been able to obtain any other documentation. In my limited experience, the stampings and broach marks look legitimate. Please way in on what your belief is as I will be putting the car on eBay in a few weeks and need to get the opinions out now and not while it is on eBay. I am not a dealer but a (58) years young Warden of a Correctional Facility here in Maine and I love all types of Muscle cars.
Here is what I have done and ID info regarding my 1970 L78 Nova SS: Frame Off Restoration; Rebuilt Engine and Heads; o Bored 60 Over; o TRW Forged Pistons; o Reconditioned Rods; o Crank Turned 10 & 10; o New Hydraulic Cam and Lifters; o New Timing Set; o New Oil Pump; o New Rings and Bearings; o Flywheel Machined; o New U-Joints; o New Clutch, Pressure Plate and Throw-out bearing; o Reconditioned Holley 4557 Carburetor; o Reconditioned 1100837 Alternator; o Reconditioned 1108418 Starter; o Reconditioned 3969811 Water Pump; o New Power Brake Booster; o Heads Reconditioned by Top Machine Shop in State New Interior - Complete; New Diamondback Radial Redlines; New Brake Lines, Hoses and Booster; New Gas Tank, Sending Unit and Lines; New Front and Rear Bumpers; New Emblems - All; New Radiator, Hoses and Clamps; New Coils and Shocks; New Date Coded Plug Wires; New and Correct Maintenance Free GM Battery and Battery Cables; New Valve Covers; New Clutch, Pressure Plate and Throw Out Bearing; New Weather-strip; New Dash; Reconditioned Dual Snorkel Air Cleaner (not an original).
