1970 SS 396/350hp numbers matching nova
restored,numbers matching 1970 nova, factory bench seat,auto on the column "SS" 1970 was the last year for the big block nova,and GM went on strike mid year which made them rarer. most people think the "SS" package has something to bucket seats and console,but they are separate options,the 396 was only available with the"SS"package in 1970,so if its a factory big block its an SS this car is not a 1000pt show car but it is a very,very, clean original,restored car[there is always something someone can find that,s not perfect] with all number's matching components........ HERE ARE THE NUMBERS. engine code: T0406CTW,[which translates to 396/350 hp 11.1 comp,4 barrel,turbo 400 trans casting # is 3969854,casting date code is A3070 [means Jan 30th ,1970] serial # is stamped above oil filter as they sometimes where back then.[besides on top of block] vin # ; 114270W332320: which means it was a gm built car,nova ,8 cylinder,2dr coupe,built at the Willow run assembly plant Trim Tag info: ST 70-11427 WRN 303616 BDY trim.731[black bench seat] paint code 28-28[fathom blue ,top and bottom] the build date : O5A [which means built 5th month 1rst week ] the other code next to it is "1026" which from what I was able to find out so far means [maybe] the car is not an issue item,according to "Chevrolet service news" dated Jan 1970[what ever that means ,if someone knows let me know] they say it was like ordering a copo car??????? [if anyone know's what this means let me know thanks] the mileage reads 70053,as of when I typed this this car has P/S,P/db,am radio [that works] 12 bolt posi with 3.73,s this is a very ,very nice riding and running car, dam even the choke works, car sits, for months go in hit it twice and starts right up......ah the good ole days..... ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() this car is just sitting not doing me any good,if i start to use it ,i will turn it into a stock suspended race car,as that is what we do,lol .i think its to nice for that.http://www.nrcmotorsports.com price 36k email,[email protected] |

Pretty nice looking car...Fathom Blue is a great color on a Nova ![]() ![]() wilma [/ QUOTE ]i did some checking on a few sites before i bought it and some said on the 70's the # could be in both places this has engine # on deck and complete # on side above oil filter ?? tell me what you want off trans,theres a tag on the side of it ,give me some #'s i might be looking for,or something.car is sitting in storage ,but i just registered it this week and could bring it down here now to check out more specific things,also seat carpet and seat belts are original to car,and dated .the guy who had this car couldnt pay the resto bill, so when it was sold the shop kept all the paper work,and picts of resto ,and he wouldnt give their name..so i have no paperwork, i looked in alot of nova book,s and sites and could find no difinitive ways to prove or disprove whats here. but all date #'s match on the components..so if you know what else to look for let me know.any help would be well taken thanks bob |

Some more detailed photos of the car inside and out would help potential buyers....door panels, jams, inside trunk, more underhood shots, back seat, etc....maybe a few more undercarriage also. Does it have the rear sway bar..?? Trans tag is on the pass side of the tranny housing...should have a C prefix followed by another letter, probably F...hi-horse cars had the W code. There will also be a julian date...most folks will also want to know the details on the bolt-on components eg; alternator, distributor, carb, water pump, starter, radiator,etc...rad support on BB Novas has a wider opening than the SB units...
