1969 Nova

[Fast67VelleN2O]

The car in question isn't an SS so why does the air cleaner have a chrome lid? With the 1968 chrome covers present, I am going to assume that someone ordered the covers and the chrome lid early on and installed them over a plain black lid and standard orange covers.

My sister's 69 Camaro is an non SS with an LM1 350 with a glide and a 12 bolt. Had the same chrome lid too. I don't recall if the vc were chrome though. I know her's is an early Camaro, maybe something they did with the early cars. How early, I forget right now.

Like this? Here is my early 1969 Camaro (10C) - also non SS with an LM1 350, a glide and a 12 bolt. I sure love to have my survivor as a go-to reference! This should resemble the way your sister's car looks... don't know whether Nova's were same or different. I sure could make room in my garage for that Nova survivor!

The valve covers look aftermarket. They are too square on the ends and look a tad too tall to be factory. Very cool Nova!

I think you might be right on the VC, but the ac lid I think it original.

Right on Helmut! Power drum brakes and AC too!

Did someone mention LM1's [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/smile.gif[/img]

This Nova got the chrome lid because it is a LM1 nova.
There were also LM1 Chevelles as well.

HR 69 350 Nova 255 LM-1 Power glide 4-Brl Hyd Cam
HR 69 350 Chevelle 255 LM-1 Power glide 4-Brl Hyd Cam
HR 69 350 Camaro 255 LM-1 Power glide 4-Brl Hyd Cam

Even in the camaro, if you ordered the LM1 option with a powerglide you usually got the 12 bolt (which is odd because I think there are several examples of SS 350's with glides that got 10 bolts).
