Re: 1969 Nova SS350
 

I think there was a guy who looked at this and made a rant on CL that seems to have been taken down.

More rust than originally described, car was repainted, wrong motor...Can't recall all the details

This car was at Spring Carlisle last year. Sat there all week at $4500. Finally sold on Saturday.

Someone I know looked at this car in person and among other things,replied to me it was one of the most clapped out cars hes ever seen.

Re: 1969 Nova SS350
 

I agree with the reports you've heard, most cars are worse than described. If this car doesn't have the original engine, that certainly devalues it - but sheet metal issues should be expected. This appears to be a decent project car, nothing to concourse restore - but toss the front clip and replace with repro metal, skin the doors, and patch the quarters and it's pretty far along. At $4,500 it was actually a good deal - but maybe just to Nova folks! [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/grin.gif[/img]

Well, here's another interesting one - didn't know that &quot;All Chevys SS models in '69 came in Daytona Yelow and Monaco Orange&quot;!

He's probably trying to say, that all DY and MO Novas are SSs. I know that is true for Chevelles, not sure about Novas.

Sam...there were no SS specific paint colors for the Nova. The Super Sport option was just that...an option. You could order any color paint, any interior combo...they had no impact on the SS option. The SS option did get the L48 350/300hp engine with the 2 big block 396's as additional choices.

Would be interesting to see the trim tag. In 69 Monaco, or hugger orange wasn't offered on a Nova. It would have been a -- on the trim tag. I'm thinking the same applies to the DY.
