The first set of pictures show the right front fender without SS emblems. Kind of appears to not have the wheelwell trim that shows in the last picture. The TT would be interesting to see.

The guy my dad bought it from was pulling it apart to redo it then quit and brought it back from Cali to Michigan when he got out of the military. The holes are there for the emblems, u can see the side marker light was out also. When my dad bought it in the early 80s he bought a bunch of old stock through Bob Schmidt Chevrolet, he was able to get a cowl hood, lower front valance, emblems and exterior door handles, some weather stripping. The car has been in a garage apart since the late 70s

Rear SS blacked out tail light

Why is the area in between the tail lights body color?  Did you modify that photo?

Looks like a photo quality issue.  Appears black with a glare to me.  Email me a full size photo that hasn't been reduced and I can repost it.

Could be paint fade or the exposure of the photo.  Seeing the engine photo above it appears to be a deep groove pulley on the alt.  Do you know what alt stamp it has and how is compares to the build date of the car?  Single fuel line or does it have a return line?

engine is gone unfortunately, In that pic it had rectangular port heads, ZL1 cam and aftermarket intake.

Reason for my question is it MIGHT have been an L78 depending on a few key items.  Hence why I asked if it had a single fuel line on the frame or 2 (return line)

I noticed that deep groove too. Chain bolted to head for engine torque, rear bumperettes taken off and manual steering... Shes a racer!

He did alot of drag racing with it, went low 12s I think I have a time slip and he gave my brother the California plates

 Nice thing about Calif. ads is often listing cars with plate numbers. See attached ads from 1971 and 1972 for your car:
