Chevrolet/Toyota?

I was just wondering since I also owned a Chevy Nova- Do they have the same body frame as the AE82? If so, can the suspension be similar to Corolla FX since the interior is the same as well as the 4AC and engine compartment. Thanks

Yes, those mid 80s novas are AE82. If you look inside one, it looks exactly the same as the 4dr corollas of those years.

Between the regular FX fronts and your nova fronts, I'm sure the suspension could be swapped without any issues. I am not sure about the rear though as the FX is much lighter in the rear (obviously).
