I'm thinking about getting a 69 nova. I found a good deal and don't want to pass it up. I heard that some parts from a camaro will bolt right up to a nova of the same year. if so what parts exactly and what years? breaks? rearends? whatever you know thanks.

Welcome to the site. As far as interchange between Nova's and Camaros go the 1st gen Camaro 67-69 uses the same front subframe and rearend as the 68-72 Nova. 73 and 74 Nova subframes are a little different and require a little modification due to bumper mounting points. 67-68 Camaro front hubs and 68 Nova front hubs are a little different than the rest of them also, but as long as you change the complete assembly in those areas it should just be a bolt in deal. Some 69 Camaro parts interchange with 69-74 Nova interiors like the ash tray, glove box door, and some heater and AC components. Sheet metal, trim, and glass is the main differences between the first gen Camaro and the third gen Nova. 1st gen Firebird parts also interchange as well as the first gen (Those built between 70 and 74) Omega, Ventura, and Apollo. Actually my build is using parts from a lot of these interchange cars.
