51.5" driveshaft for a 72 Nova

[Nessumsar]

Hey guys, I'm looking for a 51.5" driveshaft for my Nova. The car uses a 1310 u-joint, but I don't care if I have to use a conversion one to make it work.

The junkyards around here don't have anything this old, so let me know what you have.

What trans and rear are you running? Is wheel base on Nova same as Camaro? I have a driveshaft off of a '69 Camaro that had a turbo 400.

Thanks Gae, but the Nova has a longer wheelbase with its fullsize rear seats. How's the car coming along?

Is this what you are looking for?

Fastshafts brand Street Stock Driveshaft. It is new and the price is not too bad.

There are also other manufacturers who carry the same size.

Slow...started the motor last weekend and the rear suspension work wont start till the middle of February.

Goal is to make T-Hill in May.

Well, I found a "Nascar" driveshaft online at a price I could live with. All I need now are some conversion u-joints.

Hope to see you at the track sometime this year Gae.
