1970 nova ss Survivor

[Andy]

I live in Toccoa, GA now. I need to ask my uncle if he remembers seeing this car back in the day. He graduated from high school in 1970 and loves Novas so I bet he remembers it. There is another Nova in Toccoa that is just as clean as that car is that was purchased new by a lady that lives a few miles from me. We've tried to buy it many times but she never would sell it. I'll see if I can get some pics to share the next time I see it out.

Is it just me?? That interior looks almost to freshly new to be a original 53,000 mile car,what does everyone else think??

A question that came up on Stevesnovasite. Was the TH400 available on the 1970 SS 350 Nova?

I don't think it was possible during 1970,based on factory &amp; dealer paperwork I've seen &amp; reserved only for the Big Block.
Of course paper isn't always reflective of what they really did.
If it was,would think numerous owners should be easily able to prove it.

Have now heard from a number of sources that the TH400 showed up in factory installs on numerous SB cars. Seems if a car had a 3 speed automatic, the factory installed whatever they had. If there was shortage of TH350's, they put in TH400's. Apparently, many SS350's have TH400's and even some 307 V/8 cars have them. Few people in those days probably knew the difference anyway. As long as your 3 speed automatic transmission worked reliably nobody really cared what it was.

You have to see Gobi Beige in person, it's not terrible - but not for everyone. Some folks actually like it [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/naughty.gif[/img]

I like it,
It looks like a very mellow yellow more than a beige when you see it in person, something like the earlier Butternut Yellow [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif[/img]

Back in the day I never would have considered that color,but I sure would love to see this one in my driveway.I must be mellowing with age. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/smile.gif[/img]

It does make you think of BY or Lemonwood Yellow, but when you see GB next to BY - night and day! It will really look tan / beige next to BY.
