Default Re: One of ? L89 Nova for sale at Russo and Steele

To dispel all myths and questions about my car, I can assure you that its real and the only one.

[/ QUOTE ] how can you assure us all of this? are you giving a money back guarantee?

The original engine block, heads, intake, water pump, and carb as well as the original tranny and rear came with the car. During restoration at Legendary, they disassembled the engine in front of me, BKH, and Klutt to examine the broach marks and dates. All of the engine components were authenticated at that time as original and numbers matching.

then where are the piston pictures? if a magnifying glass was used to authenticate, then these should be available? I don't see where Ken, or anyone else, was disrespectful whatsoever here.... I also don't think a backdoor phone call is going to solve anything either.. a hidden VIN check for a body, and everything else was done on the engine? but the head and piston combo wasn't done, so why the avoidance of a simple question? if your going to put this thing out for PUBLIC SALE then it's originality confirmation should be PUBLIC KNOWLEDGE. Anything less than that is conjecture. NOBODY has offered any proof that this SPECIFIC engine was in fact assembled at Tonawanda with those heads, or sold new with those heads. Nor is there ANY paperwork from new showing an L89 build/sale. L78/L89 parts found now, don't make it an L89 sale from new. I still maintain the heads were put on after the sale, until such time as proof is shown otherwise. Those heads could have been installed after the original sale, so that doesn't make it a REAL L89 car does it???? nopers, not at all. Another person posted earlier that he tracked down the *possible* original owner already, so what's the delay in contacting him? if it was my car, I would have been at his doorstep the next day, even if it cost me 10k to find him...

my final respectful question is this>>> did Brian or anybody at Legendary hear the engine run, or drive the car before dissasembly??

just my respectful .02
