It was a cool and crisp Autumn night, the kind serious street racers dream about. Jimmy had just dropped Brenda off at her house because her old man wanted her in by ten o'clock, He never liked Jimmy very much anyway. He fired up his 375 hp Nova and backed out of the driveway, He was off to meet with the boys for a little street racing action out on Patterson Still road. Jimmy was thinking about the tooth he'd chipped off of his 4:56 gear at the track last week as he drove through the night. He took a right on to Patterson Still, he should be able to see the boys soon, but before he crossed the tracks the chipped tooth let go in the rear and locked it up. Jimmy came skidding to a halt dead in the middle of the tracks. "Damn" says Jimmy as he climbs out and tries to push the car but the rear is locked. "What next?" he mutters to himself. Then, off in the distance there is a glimmer of light and he hears the faint call of the whistle begin.

It's the age old story boy finds muscle car, boy loses car in train wreck. Boy becomes man and supercar broker and while surffing the net, 30 years latter, he finds his trim tag, vin and paper work on an 6cyl car. Repacement block and all.

Tell the story to enough people and it becomes the truth and you'll be surprised how many people were there when the train hit the Nova!

mr70, I see you just couldn't resist another chance to discredit this guys LS6 convertible. Why must you continue the bash this car? Are cars with real paper work and replacemnt motors looked down upon by you?How many members Supercars on this board, do you think still retain their original engines or drivetrains? Do you bash a guy with a real documented 69 Yenko with a replacement 427 block? I think not!!! Are there cars with correct dated non original 427's and restamped engine pads? Most likely. The car in question was not advertised on this site, yet it has become the next "Train Wreck" for everyone to board. "All Aboard" The train is picking up speed and heading down the mountain!!!!!

i made a mistake on this car a year ago. i passed judgement without the facts as i got caught up in the comotion. i have talked with the inspector and someone close to this car. Chuck has a very nice car here. It is documented with the LEGITIMATE build sheet. i understand the car is very correct and numbers matching with the exception of the engine, which is correct, just not numbers matching. NOT taking sides, i would admire it as my own in GRBO, NC. Let's keep this positive! Sincerely!
