I can't tell you with any confidence about the earlier versions, but all of the Novas from 68 - 79 were uni-body cars with subframes.
Just in case you're thinking about using the subframe in another vehicle, double check the width. There's a pretty good difference in the width between the subframes used in the late 60 - early 70's and those used in the mid to late 70's. | | |

In 1975 Chev went to a front steer and is about 4" wider than the 68-74 Nova. Somebody will correct me if wrong. Here is a link for front and rear end widths: http://50chevy.freeservers.com/Suspension_Widths.html#Suspension
Always get a 2nd opinion, especially if I am the source of the 1st opinion.
