Hi I'm new on the board. Actively searching for a L78 Nova with matching numbers. Anyone know anything about this car?

Dont know anything about the car but the torn up rivets and the pry-marks on the cowl tag look very scary.

Pete, JRSully has first hand info on this car.

I would guess we are both fairly close to this ride.

Pete, underneath it looked relatively untouched,since it was laying in the dirt and it was cold at the time, didn't scrape to find numbers, did check the motor stamping looked original, couldn't check heads and, as I recall, all original accessories were gone (837 alt, distrib pulleys etc) interior is there but really rough, definite rust issues 0n top and I imagine on bottom, couldn't confirm. owner owns a body shop and has a Hemi RR and an LS6 Chevelle and offered to put it up on a lift for me to view better, not a bad guy. He stated if he didn't get $20k for it, he was going to restore it, that was bout 5-6 months ago. If you need anything else, I'll try to help. SULLY
