Please note that this is NOT a list of parts for sale. The purpose of this list is to help fellow Nova enthusiasts determine which restoration and repair parts will fit a 1975 Nova.

The "Avail from Parts Suppliers" column lists the availability status.

• Yes = you can buy this part from most all Nova restoration parts suppliers.
• Some = you can buy this part from only one or two of the Nova restoration parts suppliers.
• No = none of the Nova parts suppliers sell that part.
  See my Locating Restoration Parts page for tips on locating these type of parts.

The "GM PN" column lists the original GM part number for the part (if available). These numbers are listed as LEFT / RIGHT. I've taken these numbers from several different sources so there may be some inaccuracies. Many of these numbers have been discontinued by GM or superseded with new numbers. However, they are still useful for reference and parts identification purposes.

Parts listed in green will physically fit a '75 Nova but are not technically correct for '75. The notes following the listing give more details about the differences.

Notes:

1. The '75 grille is unique but any '76 - '79 one will fit (w/appropriate brackets).
   '75 grille brackets are the same as those used on the '76 SS and '77 - '78 Rally. Grille brackets used on all other '76 - '79 Novas are different.
2. SS headlight bezels are black, standard bezels are gray, and '76 and later Custom/Concours bezels are chrome.
3. Radiator supports used with AC and/or heavy duty cooling have a wider radiator opening.
   A standard radiator support can be modified by cutting out the opening (along the pre-stamped pattern) and moving the LH lower rubber mount to the outboard position.
4. The front extensions on '79 fenders are different but the rest of the fender is the same.
5. '70 - '74 side marker lights have different "SAE" markings than '75 - '79 lights. Otherwise, the rear ones are physically interchangeable. The front ones have different "index tangs" where they fit the bezel studs so minor modifications would be necessary.
   '75 - '79 use the same marker light bezels front & rear, left & right. These same bezels are also used on the rear of '70 - '74.
6. '73 - '74 and '68 - '72 doors have shorter window frames and different inner structures so the doors themselves are not interchangeable.
   However, the lower part (from the handle down) appears similar so the lower part of '73 - '74 or '68 - '72 door skins should fit '75 & up doors.
7. Starting sometime in 1971, door hinges are welded on rather than bolted on.
8. All handles are the same for 2 & 4 door, front and rear, but rear push rods are shorter on 4 doors.
9. '73 and '74 gas tank filler necks do not have the unleaded restrictor plate. They also have a double tang twist on cap instead of a screw on cap.
10. Regular and hatchback trunk floors are the same but the hatchback has added brackets for the load floor.
11. The '75 Nova LN and '76 Concours tail light lenses have special bright accents on the raised ridge portions.
    The '77 Concours and '78 Custom use 3-lens tail lights unlike the standard 2-lens ones used on all other '75 - '79 Novas. These tail panels would fit a '75 Nova, but require the use of the corresponding lenses and bezels.
12. Wheel covers used on the '75 Nova LN and '76 - '77 Concours are the same cover but have different center emblems. '74 wheel covers are the same but also use different centers. '73 look similar to '74 but are not made of aluminum.
13. The plain steel wheels used with all hub caps and wheel covers are 14"x5" with a 5 on 4 3/4" lug pattern.
    They are usually painted body color when used with hub caps and black when used with full wheel covers.
    14"x6" plain steel wheels may have been optional.
14. A company called Replica Plastics lists reproduction '75 - '79 Nova body to bumper filler panels on their web site at www.replica-plastics.com/Chevrolet.html
15. Rally wheels with special center caps are standard equipment on '73 - '76 Nova SS models.
    Most rally wheels are 14"x6". Wider 14"x7" rallys are used with:
    • '71 - '72 SS (note: rally wheels are not standard equipment on '71 - '72 SS though)
    • '73 - '74 with disc brakes, E70-14, or FR78-14 tires
    • '75 - '76 with F41 sport suspension or radial tires
    • '77 - '79 with F41 sport suspension
    
    These 6 slot rally wheels were also used on many other 70's and early 80's Chevy vehicles such as the Camaro, Chevelle, and El Camino.
