He was refering to it only being available in the Nova/Acadian body style and his comment is correct. It was effectively only for the 69 model year.  But they did use the 350/375 H.P. ones! I have only ever seen one. Nice blue 4 spd car in Manitoba, circa 71-72

In terms of my Uncles car.  If it was built in Mi. and then modified in Oshawa, that's still a modification and not a factory output, so I have to withdraw my comment (dang).  That's really no different that a home built or dealer modified car.
