Writing on rad support says "71 or 72 rad support", therefore a small block support was installed at one time.

Tom most likely has a Big Block car nicely done and ready to go that you could just drive and enjoy, for less money than rebuilding a car.

Still on the hunt for that next project..... at the risk of losing this car to someone, what are the experts thoughts on this description?

Vehicle Description
Rare 1970 Nova factory two tone rpo coded paint black top and a hunter green metallic bottom. Paint has been freshened up within the past 6 months and only needs a few issues on interior fixed. Interior is really good for original but has a few door panels ect that need freshening. For those that dont know, in 1970 there was originally thought to be no two toned novas, This was a late 71 build and was stamped with a 1971 two tone code. The hunter green metallic was reserved for only SS and loaded cars and this one was neither. This only means it had to be ordered by someone high up at GM or a govt ordered car. There is no COPO code on cowl but it did have color match bumpers and dog dish rallies on it. I bought the car in boxes from 2nd owner who owned car since 1981.The car is a bucket seat manual car and has original cowl tag included. The engine #S match and has been completely built to the best a 350 could be without being stroked. The car is unbelievably fast and just needs a few things to be a show car or sunday driver. All paint and undercoating redone, fresh rebuilt 4 sp m20 MUNCIE installed, and car is a factory posi car. This car is stunning and we are in the process of cutting out the paint right now. New headers and duel side pipe exhaust has been installed. This car is loud and proud and very much a piece of GM history.
This is truly a stripped out factory ordered muscle car that would make a great addition to any collection!!!

I'm no Nova expert but, I call BS on that one. I thought two toned paint cars appeared to have a vinyl roof but, that roof was actually paint. The two toned treatment on this Nova looks more like a Foose Overhaulin' treatment. I also have never heard of any Novas coming from the factory with painted bumpers. Sounds like someone's old hot rod that is being passed off as some kind of one-off factory deal.

Thought the whole description was more &quot;wishful thinking.&quot; But, she has a killer look! I'd love to have someone knowledgeable and close check her out before I pulled the trigger. BTW, happy belated B'day Dave, we share the day.
