L79 Emblem??
Has anyone seen or heard of a chrome "L79" emblem for exterior??
I know Chevy used L79 for other models of cars. Even if not a corvette emblem, I need to see one.

The engine was used in other cars but never seen an L79 emblem on any Chevrolet car.

The L79 was the muscle car package added to the Nova line in the '60's.
That being said I have never seen an L79 emblem.

L79 was for the 327-350 hp engine option.
