Question:

Can a 1973 Chevrolet Nova SS be given a Fully Independent Double-Wishbone Suspension System?

Can it be done? If so, how easy or hard would it be?FWIS (4-wheel independent suspension) Multi-link Double Wishbone system.

Answer:

73 is not a real popular model of the Nova, but it may be worth it. If you can get a photo of it and send it to me I'll be able to tell you more. I think I can be emailed on here. For what it's worth.a 73 Nova with a 6 cyl isn't a bad buy.and the price isn't that far out of reach.but remember it's a 6 cyl so if you are wanting to put a different engine such as a 350 in it.you will have to do some suspension work as well I think just off hand with out seeing it I'd offer somewhere in the area of $1500 and go from there.
For a skilled welder it can be done, but it won't be easy, and there's no kit for it. As the others said, get the IRS out of a corvette if you want IRS. But it's a Nova, it will never handle well, even with fully independent suspension.
the front already has it. the rear would require some serious work but i am sure that you can find a kit for just about any thing. i want to put a v8 on my push lawn mower.
