Wanted: 1975 or 1976 Nova

I am looking for a Chevy Nova.

I have some specifications I'm looking for:

1. It has to be a "Disco Nova," that is, a fourth generation model, from the year 1975 or 1976. There were stylistic changes beginning in 1977 that aren't the same.

2. It has to have the small-block 350 (5.7 litre) motor. Or a larger build. It's a muscle car. Needs muscle.

3. I prefer it to have either the original T-shifter on the center console, or a shift kit.

4. Two door model.

Anyhow, I thought I'd throw it up here just in case someone here has one they're looking to sell.

Do you want it with the hatchback...or the more rarer (and better in my thoughts) the trunk lid???

I don't own one...But I'm thinking the junkyard by my moms place has a couple about the years you are looking for sitting in the sale lot in decent shape for a re-build....Course, Nova's around this area used to be a dime a dozen so many people were driving them back when I was in HS...Still lots on the road...I'll do some looking for you...

Running or not? There is a huge boneyard up by my buddies house...

I didn't make that very clear did I? Sorry.

I am looking for good running examples with at least decent interiors, but the main consideration is the body.

So, a boneyard may not be useful right at this point but it's always useful knowing where the bones are.
