What do you like about this car to gravitate to it?

Like the color(s)/dogdish combo. I like the bumpers, 4 speed, NM and &quot;<span style="text-decoration: underline"><span style="font-style: italic"><span style="font-weight: bold">potential</span></span></span>&quot; novelty. Again, really wanting a &quot;project&quot; nova/chevelle, mid - high collectability. All there, but needs work. I've built / am building touring/street cars, now looking for more of an investment, but a builder.

I love novas and have a survivor 69 SS BUT as an investment for time and money spent...........questionable. Stick with 69 camaros of any variety for money spent, returned etc. Just my opinion and my observation on these cars.

If it is a rust-free car, that price is awful decent. Call me skeptical though.

Go to a auto parts store and buy a 70 Nova BBC heater core. Pull the SBC heater core out. Line the BBC heater core outlets up on the heater core to the cover and drill/punch them out. When I had my Nova....I used a Greenlee punch.

Or buy a repop.... Heater Core Cover

I would also buy a set of heater gaskets so you can cover the hole in the firewall for the SBC heater core.

All of the above suggestions will work. You may need to modify the blue retaining clips that hold the core firmly in the box.
