Default 68 Body Curtains

I was told they were there to make the Nova appear as though it had a full frame. In a market study, people were turned off by the new subframe configuration from the side of the car. The side curtains or body curtains were GM's solution to make the Nova more appealing. The curtains didn't last long, as most of them got destroyed, and were discontinued, mid to late year.

I wonder how many were "jacked" out of shape/crushed by those thinking it was part of the frame ... TAZ
