Don't see these every day. Pretty cool. I like the rear spoiler.

My wife refers to this body style of Chrysler products as "Quarter Panel Kings" http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/haha.gif

I think you have to open 2 gates to get this one through! http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif
Pretty neat car thouigh, and that trunk lid is Fiberglass I believe.

I used to see a bunch (couple dozen?) of these beasts sitting at a body shop or wrecking yard off I-35 around Kansas City, MO.
Don't know if they are still there as I haven't been there in over 10 years. Pretty cool to see so many in one place, considering the low production numbers.

I had a neighbor (an older lady who lived on my paper route, 1974-76)) who had one too! I remember thinking it was too much of a boat to be performance oriented but I liked its look.

Here's sweet Linda and the 3http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/eek.gifhttp://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/eek.gif Hurst...note the Hurst Nova is in the background!.

Although no cool Hurst hoods or wings, personally I always wanted one of the '70 Sports Fury GT's...available w/ the Six Pack!.

there is one on craigslist in the northeast Mass area

i believe was asking 9k for it

[markjohnson]

They actually are good-looking and sharp cars with a nice, under-stated paint scheme. Does anybody happen to know though, what one of these Behemoths weigh? That rear quarter panel is a serious amount of sheetmetal!

There was one out there many years ago with a 426 hemi. I cant recall if they ever proved that it was factory installed or a dealer upgrade but it was really cool nonetheless.

[442w30]

Not factory!

[69hurstSC]

Does the Nova in the picture still exist today?
