That looks like a sweet deal for the cash outlay. I've got a 70 Nova that was the same exact deal 250 six/3spd and now its got the 406 with a tko600 and 4.30's out back. If only I could finish the damn thing. It's been like 8 years. Anyway, my best advice assuming you are doing a restoration of some sort. Keep everything, bag it, tag it and whenever possible go with original parts over repo stuff (bumpers, sheet metal especially). I bought three different repo front bumpers before I found one that fit decent. I bought two sets of the eyebrow trim before i came across two that fit. It really is a test of patience more than anything. If you are going to put the cowl hood on and you go the fiberglass route, Glasstek should be at the top of the list, beautiful fit and finish with minimal prep. If you have any questions about anything nova, just ask.
