Interesting that the Camaro or Nova is sporting a 10 bolt! 

Which photo or text shows that?



Ok, the Nova was a small block car, not even an SS.

I am aware what the nova was. I just meant it was interesting that they didn’t upgrade the diff but since it’s an auto probably wasn’t a concern.  And your welcome.   ;)

That spoiler also came on one of Harrell's COPOs, IIRC.
Thanks Darrell for that picture. Nice vintage shot - notice how dark the springs are.

OK but I was just going by what you typed, which seemed to be unclear which car it was. Thanks for the pic. It seems to be a larger view than what was originally posted in the thread. Where is it from?

Right. My comment was that I wasn’t 100% certain which car the diff shot was from but the Nova was a low horse sb and one would assume the diff  was from the Nova but I didn’t wanna make a statement without 100% proof.  All photos came from the Petersen Archive.

great photos

the 69 Camaro looks like it may have been a COPO 427 with that hood and silver grill and bow tie emblems ?

maybe Harrell swapped out the shortblock to make it a 454?

interesting they used a Thermoquad carb and Hurst products and that spoiler
all items that Harrell did ads for

Found a few more pictures of the Harrell Nova 454 at the Petersen Automotive Museum Digitization Project.  Search "1970 Kansas City International Raceway" to find them here: https://archive.petersen.org/pages/home.php

There was a posting 10-15 years ago on Yenko.net of a Silver 69 Harrell Camaro with the same spoiler and the stripe in black on the side...
