Cool model. Cheap and easy to find in half way decent shape for a real project. Doesn't it have a 2nd gen Camaro suspension? Lots of cool G parts available...

Prolly best to ask that in the suspension thread on the regular forum. 68-74 Novas have a 1st gen Camaro subframe and everything crosses over. In fact I found a 68 Firebird frame in the wrecking yard for my 73 Nova who had a previous owner off road incident and bent it pretty bad. In 75 with the new Nova body style they went to "front steer" like the 70+ Camaro. Everything in the front suspension was different from 74 and earlier. One can only assume that the smart GM thing to do was simply build the new Nova around the Camaro platform. You'll have to verify all that though.
