69 L78 Nova...
Besides the normal BB only items I would check originality of some of the bolt on parts like the alternator and distributor...they could have been reused during the small block swap.
The real defining clue in my opinion, is the CX tranny...if the VIN is on the case and it matches the car...and assuming the stamp is legit...it has to be an L78 car...that was the only way to get that tranny. It may also be possible to find a Fisher Body sheet that would also confirm the motor.
I noticed they used an earlier alternator mounting setup...69 would have been on the pass. side...perhaps the 307 came from a 68 vehicle.
Interesting car...worth a look for someone close enough.
