Default Motion Nova????

Here is a post I made several months ago and here are some pictures of what was just notice on the back of the block. Any thoughts." I just found a former owner of a project 375/396 4sp Nova, I've had about a year. He sold the car in the early 90's. He said the car spent some of it's early life somewhere around the north shore area of New Jersey. He bought it from a guy who had owned it since the mid 70's This guy had always claimed the car was a Baldwin Motion car. The block and heads are correct for the car and still retains the original pad stamp that matches the car. The front of both heads and the block have been stamped 3305. The block is still standard bore and complete. I know everyone in that part of the country claimed their car was a B/M., but this guy seems to be a straight shooter. He said the guy he had purchased the car from called a few years ago to try and buy it back. So does the 3305 stamped on the block mean anything to anyone? m "

Very cool...love how it's hidden when installed! .
On other known cars of Joel's w/ paperwork, is there Work Order numbers in a similar range to the 3305? .
Are there pics of the car you can share yet, what's the hood situation...and is it a '69 or '70? .

Nice! Fathom blue, buckets, black trim, no exterior moldings - sounds like a sleeper

Here is a picture on the car on the trailer , just after I made it home. Notice the rearend cover. The intake is an after market unit that had the plenum divider cut out near the rear for a 3 barrel carb. When I found the guy who owned it in the 80's he said it weird traction bars on it at that time.
