Vette(s): 1981 Charcoal Met., Silver Interior, Gymkhana Suspension, 27K original miles. It's my daily driver.
I have been looking for a few weeks for a new  C3 to replace the one that got totaled 3 weeks ago.
 I keep seeing N.O.M. in ads. I thought I knew what all the acronyms meant. I was wrong, this is a new one on me. What the heck does N.O.M. mean?  Thanks,  Tom

Not Original Motor

It meant the vehicle does NOT have the original, "numbers matching" engine...
