I have a chance to get a deal on this Nova.A number of things look wrong to me.The car looks like it was restored.Gas tank looks new,U bolts on rear look too long,leaf springs and upper A arms should not be black,rad cover bolts should be black,arm rests look like they are the wrong colour,did gold carpet come with green interior,car has a bit of a rake to it.Does anyone think this car looks like a survivor with that kind of mileage?
Thanks

Clean Nova. Not a survivor. Misused term that to some means something like: the car survived all the way back from 1971. <<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/hmmm.gif
