1969 L78 Nova - almost done
Bought this car in April 2013 from a member here. Two years and and a month later and it drove for the first time in decades. Documented with two buildsheets (broadcast copy sheets (actually)), 24,xxx original miles, born with drivetrain. 06A build date, Code 50 Dover White and 731 standard black vinyl interior. Thanks to Tom Williams for technical advice along the way, Rick Nelson for some component restoration, several others for selling me NOS parts along the way and to Tom Kusmiesz for selling the car.
