    And just where would one find this L78 registry ? I'm interested .
    Wayne, I believe Ed is referring to the Corvette C2 Registry. Look up the model year and follow the list looking at the posted 396 cars.

      OK, just checked "The Corvette C2 Registry"; they show 62 L78's with the earliest (valid) VIN of 13248. There's another 7 impossibles starting in the low 4-digits, several of them in Europe .

                I thought more people knew about the registry 0n 396's - it is run by Automotive Art Man Dana Forrester. I entered my car years ago, I am sure he is still keeping it. According to his ads in the Driveline you can e-mail him at dana@danaforrester.com - phone 888-755-8388. Good luck.

                      Thank gentlemen for all this incrediable information! I will look at the c2registry.org information and try to interpolate what I can.
