Plus the nova has many more factory options. thats just my 2 cents but in the end just do what makes you happy.

There was another post not that long ago with a similar Nova/C10 trade and everybody said don't do it, I sure wouldn't.

Re: what do think? Trade this for this?

What's the true value of both vehicles...Is the trade of equal value? I doubt it...Even if (and I would find it hard to believe) you were tired of the Nova, then you would be way better off selling it, then go get your new dream truck...
And if you keep the Nova...Please go and join the best Nova club out there. http://nnnova.com/

Re: what do think? Trade this for this?

I'd say the consensus is already in but I'll add my $.02, KEEP THE NOVA. That's not even close to a fair trade.

Re: what do think? Trade this for this?

Kevin, I wondered where you had gone...Hadn't seen any of your posts on here for a while.

This would be a tough putt....I like the Nova's as much as anyone, too. But, there's something about climbing into the trucks that make them as much fun, but in a different way. I don't remember seeing your Nova around, but that's not a biggee.

What's really behind the idea of trading? I've had itches before and made some trades that I later regretted....still can't stand to think of some of them. So, how attached are you to the Nova? I'm gonna guess that you've sold your other truck and wanna get back into the groove.

I think you're pulling our chain.... I can't believe you had to post on here to make that decision. That is a no brainer.... I have put a For Sale sign in the White Truck a couple of times with a price of $6000 and it is just as nice as that one and probably has a lot more new parts on it. Sorry about the rant but if you even consider trading you need to see a shrink...... (Saturday morning PMS) "or" (It must be the Meds)

Re: what do think? Trade this for this?

Is the Novaa factory BB car? Even if not, I say "no" to the trade. Nova SS's are much harder to find than a 72 SWB

Re: what do think? Trade this for this?

so what if.....
I traded the Nova as a roller, he threw in a bunch of truck parts, a 400 SBC, and a tuneport set-up? Would that sway any decisions?

Re: what do think? Trade this for this?

i'm not really a "car" person but looking at your nova and it's list of options, i would not trade for that truck. it appears the truck has some rust issues and other than it being a shortbed it's nothing special. if it was a bigblock cheyenne or super with some neat options i might have a different opinion.

I would have to agree. It is a tough decision for sure.
