Hey Ted, It probably too late, but did you know that I have a 70 Nova original dark green car with never a speck of rust sitting at home. It has been a drag car since the 70's. All it needs is detubbing (needs floor and trunk sheet metal to go back to stock), and an interior. I tried to email you awhile back but you probably didn't get it. :bang

Oh Yeh, It also has a rollbar, frame connectors, 12 bolt spool, perfect subframe and suspension, with drum brakes all around and a big block radiator. Did I say it's dark green? :stir

Ted for $500 you you did very well. I have been looking around for a parts Nova just for dash pieces and interior trim. I can't believe how people think crap and I mean real rotted pieces are worth thousands. They must watch too much Barrett Jackson.
