1968 Chevrolet Nova

The Nova deviated from the squared off cars for the two generations prior and introduced a car with curvaceous lines and a sleeker look. Still considered a compact, the new Nova was still considered a basic, no frills car, however, in typical Chevrolet fashion, the list of potential trim packages and performance options were long, and their relatively small size and light weight, the Nova was a top pick among engine builders and gear heads to outfit with bigger performance based motors and taken to the drag strip.
The 1968 Chevrolet Nova offered here has been the recipient of a complete, high quality restoration. The car is powered by a professionally prepared Big Block 402 V8 engine, Holly 4 Barrel Carb, fortified turbo 350 automatic transmission and 12 Bolt posi-traction rear end. Vehicle highlights include: SS trim package including hood, wheels and badging, excellent red exterior paint, very nice chrome trim and brightwork, all new interior featuring bench seat, column shift, new correct dash, upgraded stereo, after market gauges, new correct seat covers, new correct door panels and sail panels, new correct headliner, fully restored trunk area and detailed engine compartment as a SS 396. Other features include power steering, Holly 4 Barrel Carburetor, correct exhaust manifolds, dual exhaust, aluminum intake, performance cam, etc. This Nova is a blast as it is fast, has a great sound, as well as a tight suspension and steering and true braking.
The 1968 Nova is a car that defines the muscle car era. The aggressive stance and looks combined with the sound and performance turns heads everywhere it goes. The Nova's remain quite rare as survival rates for these vehicles are quite low.
