Looks nice. H/O was not a special order color in 70. It was a spring offering RPO. There were no original Hurst shifters in Novas other than deuces.
Good looking car.

Cool looking car.. I like to see original small block 350 SS cars... I don't like the body side molding.. I saw just a few little, very minor things that deviated from original: Like Ken said the Hurst stick is incorrect, the clutch and brake pedals should have the bright metal trim on them, maybe they were replaced at one time. The headlight bezels look like they were replaced and the master cylinder was replaced. The tires should be white striped instead of raised white lettered..

Car looks really nice though, and not bad for the $$$ compared to what else is out there for the same dough... I like it!!

Thanks for the input, gents [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/worship.gif[/img] I was mainly interested to see if anyone had any personal knowledge on past history and/or previous owners of this vehicle. Many times the wealth of knowledge on this site is just incredible, so you never know. My first car was a brand new Hugger orange 70 Nova, hence my interest [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/naughty.gif[/img]

Dig the double white stripes and it still even has the original window sticker in the window! Bill...... [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/worship.gif[/img]

Unique Nova for sure. Couple of detail items as mentioned

An upgrade is the LT-1 valve covers. Although they look nicer than the plain orange steel ones.

Was the warmup tube used on the 4 speed cars?

Me thinks this car may have had headers at one time and maybe the manifolds &amp; air cleaner was replaced with the auto trans style ???

That's the one, Frank....has the same body side molding as the one currently for sale. That picture was taken by my dad right after I drove it home from Egizio Chevy-Olds on Ogden Ave. in Naperville, IL in June of 1970.
