Harrell's name was often mixed up, people just didn't know also newspaper ads were taken by phone etc?
Other than a few oddballs, most Harrell ads are for Camaros and Chevelles but here's a few more for Novas.
Anyone please speak up of what may match existing cars or backtrack/find some if any slim chances even left.

A good friend owns the 396 Pace Car from this Boemler ad! He’s only the 2nd owner after purchasing it from the original, long time owner which happened to be one of our high school principals.

I sent him the photo of the ad and he got a kick out of it. Yep, we always knew our high school principal had an IPC Camaro. As far as the DH Nova goes, there’s a ton of urban legends about what happened to that car. One that I’ve heard frequently was that the young fella that purchased it lost his life in it but wasn’t discovered for quite awhile off the side of the road.

I've got a photo of that 70 Harrell Nova. It will be seen in the upcoming book, "Muscle Car Special Editions".

Wow Boemler stories Mark and love to hear more, especially anything of Harrell cars from there.
Was the legend Nova a 396 or 427 as the Harrell Special Nova in the 08/69 ad w/ Pacer may be a 396 car as 07/69 ad below, not 427 as what looks like the 450 Hp '68 Harrell Nova is in the 12/68 Boemler ad as Post #57 on Pg.6?
Any '68 L78 Novas Harrell sourced through Boemler would be sticks and only Gibb received '68 Factory M40's, correct?:hmmm:
:beers:

Seems like lots of Nickey Novas in their day, at least in these ads I'd saved a few years back.
Here's a Christmas Day '69 ad from Indianapolis w/ '69 Nickey L88/M40, wow other cars listed too!
Considering location, this could be the Cincinnati Nickey as ad in Post #117 above but 6 months earlier?:hmmm:
:beers:
