DESCRIPTION
Big block with a 4 speed in a Nova sounds like fun to me! This car was the recipient of a gorgeous restoration with performance at the focal point. On top of a built 468 it has many suspension upgrades that help transfer the power to the pavement. This one is dialed in and ready to rock!
EXTERIOR: Smooth and shiny! The gorgeous Torch Red paint was neatly applied then polished to a reflective finish. Torch red is about as bright as it gets and the unique black stripe down the center is painted on smooth to the touch. All the panels are nicely aligned with good gaps. The doors close easily with minimal effort. The front grill is in great shape and all the chrome has a beautiful shine. The steel cowl Induction hood is a great touch. The windshield has been replaced and the remaining glass looks to be good originals. It has both SS and 396 badging. It\'s sitting on a beautiful set of 17\" chrome American Racing Torque Thrust wheels wrapped in Mickey Thompson performance radial tires.
INTERIOR: Beautifully refinished! The dash pad is not cracked, the headliner is not sagging. It has recovered high back bucket seats with headrests that are very comfortable. Also, reproduction door panels. There is a factory tachometer in the dash as well as a Sport Comp on the dash with a shift light. It also has a nice center console with factory gauges and a Hurst t-handle shifter. Also equipped with a tilt steering column and aftermarket cushion grip steering wheel. It has a retro stereo that fits in the factory hole and 6x9 speakers in back. The carpeting was replaced, and the rear has seat belts too. Additionally, the dome light is working.
ENGINE COMPARTMENT: Under the cowl hood is a gargantuan 468 cubic inch V8! It\'s topped off with a dual feed Holley carburetor and an endurashine Edelbrock intake manifold. It also has a set of chrome valve covers and air cleaner too. It\'s equipped with power steering and power brakes. The steering gearbox was replaced also. It has an upgraded MSD electronic ignition and Hooker headers. All the hoses and wires were replaced. Under the hood is painted body color and the fender wells/firewall are stain black.
TRUNK COMPARTMENT: The underside of the trunk lid and jamb are painted body color. The weatherstrip was replaced. Inside is all clean metal with a neatly applied spatter finish paint.
UNDERSIDE: Upgraded and detailed! It has fresh tie rod ends and ball joints. Nice adjustable coil over shocks up front. Out back has fresh leaf springs and shocks plus CalTracs traction bars. Frame connectors were installed to prevent twist. It\'s upgraded with disc brakes at all four wheels that have slotted and drilled rotors and Wilwood calipers too. The emergency brake is hooked up and it has line lock as well. It has long tube headers that lead back to fresh and fat exhaust pipes plus Dynomax mufflers. The gas tank was replaced. Looking up at the 468 cubic inch engine it has neatly applied Chevy orange paint and no visible leaks. The Muncie 4 speed manual transmission looks great too. It\'s equipped with a 12 bolt posi rear end. The floors appear to have a factory undercoating and were freshened up with neatly applied black paint.
SERVICE: We thoroughly inspected this car and shimmed the starter, replaced the radiator, replaced the valve cover gaskets, replaced the thermostat gasket, fixed the backup lights, replaced the horns, and added door bumpers.
This is a cool cruiser with a performance drivetrain and great colors! If fast and loud are your thing then take a good long look at this Nova!
For nearly 30 years, I, Jay Grams, have personally written the highlights for almost every car in our collection. What I provide is my professional opinion based on my experience with these vehicles. However, opinions can vary, and I strongly recommend a personal inspection to form your own view. Our sales team is always available to answer any questions you may have. One great option is to request a personalized walk-around video, where we can showcase the car and share our team\'s insights. **Our cars are displayed within a museum setting. If you are interested in a specific vehicle, please schedule an appointment with a salesperson to view it. Without an appointment, there is an admission fee to enter the showroom. If you decide to purchase a car, your admission will be refunded, and you\'ll receive a one-year museum membership.
