FWIW, If your hunting this complete set up, always check the build date, As Marlin stated, they only appeared in the 2nd half of the 70 model year. Anything built prior to Jan 70 would probably not have the set up factory installed. Also, if you find a potential car that has it/had it but the bar and links are gone, check for the floor welded upper mounting brackets anyway. If the car was cut up (raced.?) it was almost certain the bar was in the way and chucked, but rarely would the welded brackets be removed. Grab those anyway

Agree with Sully, the floor brackets were rarely removed but the sway bar was simply in the way for even installing generic traction bars! The only bars I've seen where the RSB was retained were the Drag Dimension bars, specifically on the Roof Deuce.

Measured my nova bar was 9/16" diameter. Anyone else have different diameter than that on Nova?

I believe most are 5/8" although I have a L78 car that has a 13/16" rear bar on it.

The plates are not assembly line correct on that Ebay set up, but could probably cut them to make a correct look
