Bud...I will see if I can speak to Rolland, the owner of the place. One more phone call won't hurt I guess. Thanks.

I had the same thing with this Rolland regarding an "ALL ORIGINAL" 1965 Chevelle SS. I ended up contacting a very knowledgeable member from Team Chevelle and he told me the car was bogus. This guy typically has a showroom full or NOM cars, and clones. Tony-- he did the exact same thing to me. Quiet the business man!

Here are some numbers on the Nova

VIN..114270W228595
Trim Tag
70...11427WM178450
732...78..78
01B...A

Engine
T0918CTX
19W228595

Isn't that a Sept 69 engine date? And a second week of Jan car build date?

You are correct. On my Nova, the time between build date and engine date is only one week. In most cases the engine date will be within a month or so of the build date of the body.

Tony,
CTX looks good. 70 396/350 4spd. Assembled 9/18. Vin stamp is W for willow run. Vin on car and motor the same. Build week looks off. Could it be 10B rather than 01B. The rivot is near the date. They can be hard to read. Earl

FAKE! The VIN code should be 10Wxxxxxx with the "0" being for the 1970 model year, not date. A "9" there would indicate a 1969 model. Something is screwy with that one.
