I have a L78 Nova Shadow Gray has original M21, 12 Bolt 3:55 but not the motor has small block . Original Harrison radiator, XT spare with Jack. Floors, trunk, frame rails, Rockers are solid but will need sheet metal. I was thinking it's worth 10K. Any thoughts I will not be insulted on comments. Thanks Bob
Any paperwork to prove L78?
That would be a huge plus.

Looks like it needs some work...the parts listed are worth some money, but not $10k. Take out the back seat and look for the buildsheet...it won't list the engine, but it will show the SS option, floor shift, etc.
Some underhood photos would help us determine BB originality...if it has been stored a long time the clues will be there.
Perhaps you can trace some history...search thru the car for other paperwork or POP...

Shame the L78 396 is gone. That hurts value, but this car has potential and paperwork is found for originality.

It was sitting in a garage for 19 years. I thought I did a NCRS report but I didn't. Ordering one for it now. It had the deep groove pulleys from the old motor it has single fuel line & 3:55 rear that's why I think it's a L78. I might be wrong. I'm going to look for a build sheet. Haven't done much with the car just realized I have to much s**t. So going to be selling some of my stuff. Thanks for comments.

Looks like a typical 90s MA car that was driven in the weather. Remember them well.
