Nice looking car with some questionable Internet history - not necessarily a bad car, just high skepticism that it began life with the 375hp mill.

----I love white Camaros with endura bumpers, but you are correct, Tony. Too many unanswered questions. Big description with absolutely no mention of the drivetrain originality. What air cleaner base would have that second tube? Not a big deal but it's got me wondering. Would take significant expenditure to make the car correct as pretty as it may be!.....Bill S

Sold at B-J Palm Beach 2013 for $47,300. The consignor claimed it was an L78 and the current owner is sticking to the story.

The ebay auction states he has the FACTORY build sheet which "shows the painted bumper"...
Factory build sheet = body or chassis broadcast... if he has either the car can be identified - there are a number of people who know which engine corresponds to the single digit alpha or numeric character designations in the engine RPO box on a body broadcast sheet...

How often do you see those broadcast sheets on Norwood cars?

Not unheard of, but exceptionally rare to find the sheet in a Norwood built car.

Here's one from my high school car I found, a norwood car.

Base 307 car, has the odd 4L date code on the tag.

I had three separate build sheets on my Norwood 1969 Pace Car. The dealer sold it to me in 1981.
