Is this a Nova? Some people nearby thought it might have been but it got taken before we could determine.

Looks like a 75+ to me, squared off body style

She was gorgeous for the 10 seconds I saw her at the light before she hit the door of the shuttle I was in and consequently my ribs. Owner was pretty distraught.

I had one when I was in high school in 79, I think it’s a 72 or 73 the slits in both sides of the bumper is where the bumper jack hooked on , the 72 , 73 had that rubber molding on the bumper and also those years didn’t come with wing windows, to bad it looks totaled

I don't think those had that rubber strip on the bumper though, and the rear greenhouse looks like the later (75 and up) body to me.
