Can anyone verify if this rear 5/8" sway bar came from a 1970 Nova SB?

Looks right to me. The straight down tabs on the strut bars are a good indicator of it being the real thing.

Thanks John, WIW if I decide to sell it?

The F41 rear bar you have is correct for a Nova, but it doesn't matter if it's a BB or SB, same setup for both. Would be the setup for 69-72 Novas. The front bar would be 13/16" and the F40 or standard would be 11/16".

:dunno:
No clue on the value, but the lower spring/shock plates are also different, and I don't believe the top hangers that attach to the trunk floor are available. According to my Nova nut friend (RIP), 71 and later struts have the tabs on the struts at 90 degrees to the strut, instead of pointing down.

That is correct, the 70 Nova sway bar stuff is rare because it only came out after Jan 70. Drop downs and spring plates are 70 only specific
