Re: 1969 NOVA SS L-89 ONE OF 311 UNRESTORED ORIGINAL
 

So in your old thread you state the heads were dealer installed. That would exclude it from being one of the 311 that you state it is above. We questioned the L89 option because no documented L89 Nova has ever been found.

Unlike my good friend Mr. Howie, I do think there may have been some L89 novas built. Problem is, I have a couple of smoking guns, but no bullets. To the best of my knowledge, no specific engine codes exist for a L89 nova. Most of the smoking gun info I've gotten point to dealer installed on delivery, but when the smoke clears, I've yet to find any verifiable documentation. Please share with us any verifiable evidence that you have. There's nothing I'd like better than to prove Mr. Howie wrong. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/beers.gif

First, you might want to take your caps lock off. So you are saying the car was an original L-78 with dealer installed L-89 Aluminum heads? Do you have any supporting docs to confirm this? I remember this car a year or two ago selling out of Oklahoma I believe. Seems like a very nice car, just curious about the L-89 Aluminum heads.

So you have two 67K mile Rally Green L89 Novas and they both have black vinyl tops ? One is L78 with the heads dealer installed and the other is a factory l89 ?
