Re: # of original L79 Novas and Z28's in stock and superstoc
Jim got his original Z/28 back a few years ago and has been turning it back into a street, S/SS car. He began racing pretty much as soon as he bought it. Sold it in 79 to build the Opel. The title is still in his name as it has been a race car its whole life. 27K on the odometer.

I'm not sure how many cars that have been race cars for over 1/2 a century still have their born with motors at hand, i'd wager not too many.

WoW thats awesome Eric that you have that, I wish i had kept some of my cars but I always wanted something else. But like you i do have pics and its fun to go back and look at them once in a while. Love your cars especially you truck and my wife and I are great fans of the Dachshund dogs.
