Well it definitely has all the right pieces from the photo to be a SS350, vented hood, proper optional wheels(wrong colour but there at least).

Here's a page from the 1970 Pontiac full line sales brochure:

Would they not, save a lot of time, if they put in a price?... I have owned over a 100 different cars, and I have NEVER called on a ad w/o price.. Did you know that there is a proper SS hood?  It has the tabs/reinforcements for the louvers.. A lot of hoods are just drilled .... Car sure looks rusty underneath...

Good old Ontario road salt . Any one looking for a solid car should come west. I know shipping will cost but then you have a solid body and frame to start with.

My 67 Nova SS was a Phoenix car. It makes me smile when I put it up on the hoist and look under it. I have NEVER owned a car like that. It's always been a little bit of rust to repair on all my cars.

I still like it here best of all though!

I had a 66 Mustang from Arizona. I cleaned the frame rails with Windex! You could still read the caster and camber measurements written in grease pencil on the frame rails. I'll have to post pics

Removed and replaced all 4 brake cylinders and master cylinder without replacing any brake lines on the Nova also. I know people are tired of me telling that story, but it still amazes me on a 40 year old car.

I have NEVER had anything come apart like that. My 10 year old cars have had rusty brake lines.

We had to undo the exhaust and a few other pieces to get at the trans line that was leaking on my Porsche last winter. Every bolt came free, no rusting, no cutting, no busted knuckles.
I had a Cadillac Allante from Virginia that was the same. It's discouring when last month had to replace brake line front to back and emergency cables on a 2000 Dodge from rust out!

I know what you mean about southern cars Earl.  I have parted out a number of cars in Florida and gone to numerous pick a part yards.  It is amazing when you can just undo things like wheel lip mouldings with a screwdriver applying normal force, no penetrating oil, heating, swearing required!  My friends down their are always amazed I spend so much time commenting on how "nice" a car's frame is, to them it's never an issue.  If they were smart, they would start saving the frames and sending them up here to sell instead of just junking them!
