To follow up on Charlies point: the next logical question is if this particular car was a 'plain 396 Nova with no mods done' then why did it even make it onto the list of 37?

The prevailing thought is that Yenko bought these L78 Novas in batches and had them stashed in the upper lot awaiting conversion through sYc. However, if someone wanted one of them without being modified or converted, it would be sold as such even though it was originally intended to be used in the SuperCar program.
