Wilma/Jeff L...run down some of the differences for me...I was reading on www.stevesnovasite.com/ about the ashtray of all things that are near impossible 1 year only pieces..must be a ton of oddball stuff on them.

68's are one of kind. Here are some highlights:
1. First year of the new body style. Last year to be called Chevy 2/Nova
2. Dash board is unique, similar to camaro with the ignition key on the dash.
3. Many interior trim pieces are 68 only items: kick panels, dash items, seats, handle positions on the doors, steering wheels.
4. Exterior: Super Sport emblem on bottom of front fenders.
5. First year for the BB motor in a Nova. Gibb cars got the TH400.
6. There are dozens of other small trim and mechanical parts that are 68 only items.

So if you want a challenge finding parts, buy a 68!!
