Hey guys...I think I may have stumbled on a 2nd gen Nova rear...but I didn't want to show how "Interested" I was...and in my dumbfoundedness....I forgot to look at alot of stuff.

The rear is mounted in a 63' two door, it has 215/15 inch tires on it...stock steel wheels. The tires don't stick out past the rear quarters or anything, they are flush with the quarter. I measured the rear...but forgot what the heck it was!!! I know.....:mad: The guy told me it was a posi...it sure was...I took off the cover, and the spider gears were welded together!! He quickly dropped the price from $900....to $200....he wants it gone, as he's setting it up for drag racing, with a 4 link.

Questions...what are the chances that I've found a 2nd gen 12 bolt? Any other tell tale signs I can look for? I'm positive it's a passenger car 12 bolt...Thanks in advance....

Scott

(Guy is removing rear, and I'm to pick it up later)
