Looks like a scene from Goodfellas...

It was a stealth bomber.. All the rich kids had brand new cars, this rat ran great and was mucho competitive for what it was. These small block 300hp cars were good runners. And, looking like a POS at the stoplight with an M20 low 1st gear, was gravy...

Back to pretty ones .
Saw this L78 at a local car show and drooled all over it, and then it popped up on Facebook.
And yes it’s green!!!

My '69 L78 that I found as a project on this site and restored between 2013-2015. Original drivetrain with two broadcast sheets. Sorry, its not green, but rather Code 50 Dover White.
