You have no idea how much I wanted to post about the gold car. It was so much closer to being real just because of the details that were done right on the car and the early build date that was closer to the documented real L89 motors that are known. This black car has detail issues beyond the heads that are wrong for the build date of the car.

The Black car was put in for Judging at the Nova Nationals back around 2008 or 09.......Not mentioning any names......but.....the owner was told by the Judge it would be better to withdraw the car from Judging rather than embarass himself...........It was pulled from Judging......

Not to be over critical but isn't that a 69 Master cylinder? The Oil cap? Replacement shroud? Shroud mount bracket? And shouldn't the alternator bracket have a circular hole in it for a 70?

Nice looking car though.

Just noticed the valve covers too, must go with the cap. The description says &quot;Just look at the engine compartment&quot;
