			Been doing some house cleaning and found a photo [fall of 1973] that I haven't seen in over 40 years...the first Nova  
		
		
		
			![]() 1970 Nova SS 396/375hp, p/s, Forest Green, Exterior Decor Pkg., black deluxe bench seat interior. Those are Mohawk Super-Mag 60 tires with Cragars...you can see the traction bars hanging down. I really thought this photo was lost...glad I sorted thru the trash a second time ![]() -wilma

			Very cool Nova.   Like the Holy Grail when you find something like that.  Searched for pictures of my 1970 L78 4 speed for a long time as well.  Mark

			Great to see all those green Novas...I guess earth tones were in for 1970. Thanks for the re-size on the photo...

			OK, count me in. June 1970, me with my brand new Hugger orange 70 Nova, 307, floor mounted 3 speed, AM radio, power steering, bumper guards, whitewalls & Rally wheels. Sold it 5 months later....had to have something faster.
