Default "THE" L89 Nova on Dream Car Garage

Saw the episode last night on Dream Car Garage that featured the infamous 70 L89 Nova. I take it the owner consigned it to Legendary to sell. I love how Klutt states how people are crazy to spend $100k on a resto of a "regular" Nova, but he guesses that this one warrants it.? That guy would restore a Lawn Boy if the price was right. THEY ACTUALLY SHOWED some of the infamous doc's as well.!

This car will be a part of the sYc Supercars Showcase at the Chevy Vettefest this coming weekend. The owner will be showing this car, so I once again extend the invite and give you yet another reason to come to the show! www.chevyvettefest.net

Infamous as in they supposedly existed, but nobody had seen them. They have now obviously been "outed" and the car is real

My wife and I sat with the owner and the guy from Legendary Motorcars that was restoring the car at the SCR10 banquet/dinner.Both of them were very nice to talk to.They said that the car was going back to the shop to fix some little stuff that needed attention.I thought the car was really nice at the show.It's worth the price of admission to Vettefest to see this car.

If you are ever near Milton, Ontario, it's well worth the time to stop into Legendary. After about an hour you get complacent to the amount of rare cars there. "Ho hum-a Hemi here, a Yenko there.."
