Most car dealerships had one buyer's order for new and used vehicles. Obviously the new cars and trucks came with the manufacturer's warranty...the dealer could not take that away. It was very common before the advent of consumer laws that used vehicles were sold as is. It is still a fact even today...laws vary by the state. There is a federal FTC requirement that all used vehicles have a "Buyer's Guide" displayed on the window...this form clearly outlines the warranty coverage that comes with the used vehicle.

The penalties are substantial if the feds get aggressive...each year there are dealers who receive stiff fines for failing to comply.
As for this Nova...I'm sure the factory warranty was put to the test early on given the performance package under the hood [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/rolleyes.gif[/img]
