Not a chevelle/malibu, front end doesn't match and of the headlight styles, nor does the rear glass. Too long to be a nova, if anything I'm thinking it might be a cutlass or monte carlo, a real big body.

It's a nova, couldn't be a Javelon. The rear doesn't look like a Jav

It's a Nova, no question. Definately not a Jav, the panel flare on a Jav follows the line of the car. High in the front, low in the back. The nova flares go straight down the side of the car, front to rear. Nova

look at how the front and rear bumpers come around. Also note the forward side glass section, as well as how the C-pillars taper

It's not a Nova, would have the bigass side marker light right behind the headlight. Nova's front/grill also slant forward (overbite), this one appears to be straight up and down.

Not a Javelin either, rear is too long and the nose is too short...the rear bumper is too high too and i don't think they have wing windows either...

I'm still lookin...

not a 73 - rear side windows taper differently, and 73's had big black bumper guards, whereas this does not
