If you are ever near Milton, Ontario, it's well worth the time to stop into Legendary. After about an hour you get complacent to the amount of rare cars there. "Ho hum-a Hemi here, a Yenko there.."

Apparently there were 6 made




1970 Chevrolet Nova SS 396 L89
1970 CHEVROLET NOVA SS 396 L89. 1of 6 produced by General Motors. There is one other known car that has survived. This SS L89 Nova is a numbers matching car backed by its warranty protecto plate book, original owners manual, brochures, and literature. Body off restored to its original chalk markings. Equipped with its 396/375 hp L-89 packaged motor with a Muncie M-21 4 speed, 12 bolt rear end with a 4:10 rear end gear ratio. Cortez Silver, Black interior, bench seat, radio delete, black vinyl top, expressed clearly on the trim tag. The car is tailored with its vintage correct optional 14" SS wheels, with polyglass Goodyear tires. Maintains its rear original quarters clearly visible coded correct. Valuable piece direct from GM and in my opinion as or more valuable than any Yenko out there.

Hmmmm.... "Valuable piece direct from GM and in my opinion as or more valuable than any Yenko out there." O.K. sure, then why not price it at, say, $350K. And pls educate me, does the "warranty POP" have the engine and drivetrain codes on it?

Saw the Dupont registry did 70 Nova L78's use the Dual snorkle air cleaner like the 70 Camaro L78's?

Late 70 L78 Novas used the dual snorkle, although most of the time they were chucked
