walking around in the junk yard near where I live looking for seats for the camino and I spot what appears to be a 70(?) nova in pretty nice condition for being in a junk yard . since you don't see much 70's around here i went over to take a look and i saw an oil pan sitting on the ground next to it. it was a mildon so i picked it up to see if it was usable. i check out the bottom and it has a hole in it about 4 inches wide that was blown from the inside out. the poor guy probably blew the engine and got dicouraged and dumped it. :oops: :oops:

Thats too bad :-( Is the body worth saving? Novas can bring a pretty good price even if beat up a little!

I've dealt with alot of salvage yards. 99% of the time, once a car is junked, the title is decomissioned, and you can't buy the whole car. I've only seen the little ma & pa salvage yards in the little towns sell a whole car.
