Oh, I just realized you're in New York Wilma. That's where I was told this car wound up when a friend of mine sold it, in the early or mid 90's I think it was.

The car was at Macan one time a few years ago. The car had many issues, we;ll leave it go at that. Since then, it;s been passed around alot. Question: Who would let go of a rare car. If your a true hobbist??? BBBenny

Thanks bbbenny. I heard about the L89 just wasn't sure if there was a story behind it.

With Steve in charge.........I'm sure that protecting the Pedigree of Rare cars is back in vogue............That's what this site is and should be about.........."AND"........If there is any questions about L-89 cars in the future.........Check the color of the distributor cap.......We got it from the source (the owner at the time of the 1 of 1 L-89 Black Nova) that "ALL" L-89 's had Tan Caps..............Just passing along information collected along the way.....

Congrats on your car Timmy and welcome aboard!
L89 or not, a '69 w/ factory 4:56 would be a Copo 9511 car so please include axle tube #'s w/ your details.
