Re: modern frame replacement for 63 nova

This is a popular set up for the front.

The early Nova's original rear set up is still considered "modern" but was not designed to handle lots of power. What engine and what size tires are you planning to run?

Looking over your post it sounds like you want to attach the Nova body on the chassis of a more modern vehicle. If this is the case I remember seeing an early Nova built over a newer Corvette chassis. So it can be done but it is certainly a huge project requiring a lot of skill.

Check out Classic Industries, they have an online catalog you can download. Look in the suspension section for front and rear end conversions that are incredable but cosly. You can get a coil over front end with disc brakes and an aluminum independent rear suspension with disc brakes as well.
