Re: 1970 L78 NOVA SS 396 4-SPEED DOCUMENTED
Jim,
Are you saying that you have proof that the original block is not in the car?

I personally do not have the photo if that is what you are asking. However, the person who has known this car for along time DOES have the original with the vin stamp ON IT and forwarded a pic the the owner

Re: 1970 L78 NOVA SS 396 4-SPEED DOCUMENTED
Si Jim...repodude...did you own the car ??? So now we have no idea who is the one with deception since an earlier post said they "heard" the block was desroyed and rod kicked out....so now you are saying someone has a pic of the original block that they have ???? Instead of posting remarks like you know it is all deception....bring something concrete to the discussion...not hearsay that we have no idea who or what you are talking about. Either prove theblock is not the original...or quit acting like you know it is a re-stamp. Easy enough to prove if you have pics like you say you do.

Re: 1970 L78 NOVA SS 396 4-SPEED DOCUMENTED
So someone had the presence of mind to take a pic of the engine pad stamp well over 15 years ago , then proceeded to destroy the block Forgive me for being cynical, but this sounds more like a "i sold it not knowing it was an L78, now that i see it has canada paperwork and a 75K price tag im going to taint it" story to me.

Seems like a lot of insinuation going on but nobody has anythig YET to prove their claims....which is total bullshit

Re: 1970 L78 NOVA SS 396 4-SPEED DOCUMENTED
Heres a hypothetical[actually it HAS happened to a friend of mine, but the cars im referring to below are fictional]. A guy sells a car that he doesnt know was a copo as the motor is gone and there is no paperwork for 5500.00. 3rs later the new owner finds the original block after doing some owner research. Seller is pissed he was unaware it was a valuable car and want revenge since the car sold on ebay for 175K and he saw it. So he restamps a block with a 325HP designation and the vin of the car and tells everyone including the new owner that the guy he originally sold the car to is a liar . Great payback huh??? Needless to say, no one believes the guy that sold it for 175K.

Re: 1970 L78 NOVA SS 396 4-SPEED DOCUMENTED
I completly agree with king show us proof that the engine he claims to have been found is not correct and do it now so you dont have time to make a restamp yourself knowledge of something dosent hold water you must have physical proof
