bbbenny's 69 L78 does not have one. Brake lines and set up is original.

That's what I thought, the changeover was in early/mid '70 production. Then, we started looking at the '69 Novas a little harder, and can't seem to find any with the block on the rail. Could it be a design limited only to early '70 production?

My 70 L78 has it tucked under the master,and my untouched 69 L78 has it on the frame rail. SULLY

What are the dates of your cars? Maybe we can nail down the start/stop weeks of when the Novas had the duhicky on the rail.

My '69 is an 02A build.
My '70 is an 05D build.

What's your build date Alan, I know you have an early car. The NNN giveaway car was a very early '70, dated 10A, and did not have the duhicky on the rail.

Marlin,
I'm pretty sure the NNN giveaway car DID have that junction block on the subframe. Mine has 09E on the cowl tag. Most of them that I've seen built from 08B through the calendar year 1969 with disk brakes had that block.

Re: '70 Berger Nova?
 
Hmmmm.... Ok, that would make sense then, so this block is unique to the early '70 Novas only?

Re: '70 Berger Nova?
 
Possibly 69's with disk brakes also, since JRSully's '69 has one.

I believe in the NNN articles, it talks about that block and even how it is date coded.

Re: '70 Berger Nova?
 
Yea, that's true. Mine and Benny's '69's don't have it, so I'm curious as to the build date of Sully's '69.

Re: '70 Berger Nova?
 
Neither of our '69s with disks had it...

Re: '70 Berger Nova?
 
I'll check my 69 L78 to verify this weekend and will report back. Thanks

SULLY
