Be sure and put that hood on before tightening the fenders. I had my left fender lined up nice, right fender as well, installed hood and started all over... ended up with loosening my right side top door hinge to bring it out to match top fender. I still need to replace all door seals. I hope bringing it out 3/8” doesn’t cause window leak. Currently everything leaks as the rubber has rotted.
Thanks for the updates! It’s an exciting build.
My '69 had a bench seat too, but I wanted to put buckets and a console in this one. A friend had a couple of '69s (He wrecked one and almost killed himself.) with bucket seats and I liked them more than the bench seat.All my Nova's had bench seats. I miss those. Driving along out in the country with my arm around my wife listening to the radio.
Nice job on the rust detection.
I have checked the dimensions between the fenders at the cowl and at the radiator support, and according to the Nova assembly manual, it's right on.Be sure and put that hood on before tightening the fenders.

We had a three-on-the-tree in one of them. So she learned to shift for me so I didn't have to take my arm down from the back of the seat. Now that right there is love.My '69 had a bench seat too, but I wanted to put buckets and a console in this one.

I may cut the left windshield tab off and check for rust under it too. No sense letting it go this far into the game.
Just make sure she grabs the correct lever.We had a three-on-the-tree in one of them. So she learned to shift for me so I didn't have to take my arm down from the back of the seat. Now that right there is love.
