need help on 63 nova anyone know

my son has a 63 nova2.he wants me to ask if early mustang parts interchange with any of the nova parts mainly the front end stuff....anyhelp thanks....

 

Nope--not a direct replacement
There is stuff to make it fit

Put a straight axle under it!

 

nope ...

 

There are quite a few kits that you can buy that use Mustang II front suspension components. But for a basic kit it would cost you at least $1500 for those kits. I know of some people that have fabricated their own front clips....

Best site for a 63 Nova: www.stevesnovasite.com

I am a member there under the same screen name. Great place for Nova info. I myself have a 63 Nova.

I love the straight axle look like the other guy here recommends.....would be sweet......it was either a Gasser or Pro Street with mine....I went the Pro Street route.....

 

Chassisworks sells a bolt in fronend for box Nova's here's a link http://www.dragracingonline.com/technical/upfront.html

 

I think he means "stock" componets. Although they look alike, they are not interchangable.

 

The front spring perches from a '64-'73 Mustang will fit with a small elongation of one bolt hole on the'62-'67 Nova upper control arm. I build Mustang roller bearing equipped spring perches, and I sell alot of them to the Nova guys.

 

I would love to see these. Do you have any pictures (or a website) of your work? You have me interested!

 

Also a company called CPP makes a mini subframe kit that bolts right in. Price is reasonable, and the install looks easy. I might even end up with this setup instead of running the stock suspension up front.

Some good info (and pictures) here:
