Would anyone know how I could get in contact with a gentleman named Dean from CT whose handle on here was @wot? He hasn't posted in years and had this 1970 L78 Nova
https://www.ss396.com/cars/deans-197...per-sport-l78/ which I believe sold on BAT back in 2022:
https://bringatrailer.com/listing/19...rolet-nova-28/ He may now be living in FL.
He had commented on a post back in 2005 about previously working at United Chevrolet in Worcester. This was formerly Butler Chevrolet until late 1969. He mentioned being the person who did car swaps across dealerships. My NCRS report originally listed a dealer code and zone which corresponded to Cargill Chevrolet in Putnam, CT, but after checking with DMV, was told my pace car was never registered in CT. Since Cargill was only 20 minutes from Butler, I believe it was a dealer trade. After speaking with someone that worked at Cargill he only recalled a 350 automatic on the showroom floor there. My car was 396/4speed. Believed to be originally L78. With the title history back to 2nd owner wo bought it at a used car lot in Worcester, I was able to find the original owner who bought it off showroom floor at Butler. I do not have pictures from the 1st owner, but she recalls it being the "biggest most powerful 396" and a fourth owner that told me that he rebuilt the engine in 1974-75 and said it had 4 bolt mains. Of course I don't have the original engine unfortunately, but just want to authenticate these recollections. I'd love to speak with Dean to see if he remembers the car and may recall doing the trade.. Thanks in advance
