I want to thank Eddie M (enio45) for the help finding a Nova that my son and I are pumped about. This car has exceeded our expectations and is unbelievable condition.

Tale of the tape:
!969 L78
Complete born with driveline
70% original paint...RALLYE GREEN
18k original miles and a couple of other cool options

We are going to change just a few minor items, steel wheels (need some) for sure, and maybe a couple other items, but overall the car is awesome.

This is the 2nd acquisition as a result of the many fine members of this site, thanks to all of you. My son and I love muscle cars and will spend the rest of the summer enjoying the Nova before we set our sites on the next one. http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/pics/usergals/2016/08/full-19029-47695-img_2554.jpg

Very very nice car from the Pittsburg area - we have known about this car for years. The owner of my 68 non converted yenko - Rally Green has a brother who this car belonged to - who had to have a Rally Green car as well. Ownership over the yrs was small - probably 3 if i recall before Barry (Crush) bought the car.

Glad it went to a good home and caretaker for yrs to come.....

Good luck with the car Barry

One last item - we used this car to color match my yenko car when we restored the car.....

Cool it's an L78 also L<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/drool.gifVE that Rally Green w/ Black Hat!
Looking forward to hearing what dealer delivered the car new also if you're seeking past history, posting the Vin here may help as there's lost paperwork for a few Novas floating around also a chance for anyone searching the Vin to find this thread and you later too.
BIG Congrats!!!

Beautiful L78.

Someone mentioned lost paperwork floating around. I own 114279W514168 and have two broadcast copy sheets, but if there is any other paperwork that matches this VIN, I would be very interested in it. Thanks
