A 1972 front bumper will not directly fit a 1973 Nova without modifications. While the two models share a similar design, the bumper mounting brackets and alignment may differ due to changes in the body structure and design. It's advisable to check compatibility or consider using the correct bumper for the specific model year for the best fit and appearance.

A 1968 bumper bracket may not fit a 1973 Nova due to differences in design and specifications between the two model years. The 1973 Nova features changes in bumper design and mounting points to comply with new safety regulations. It's best to check compatibility through specific part numbers or consult with a classic car parts supplier for accurate information.
The bumpers from a 1970 Chevy Nova SS will not fit a 1973 Chevy Nova SS without modifications.
