1962 Chevrolet Chevy II Nova VIN# 204370127169
In 1960, Chevrolet began work on a more conventional compact car that would eventually become the Chevy II. The car was of semi-unibody construction having a bolt on front section joined to its unitized cabin and trunk rear section, available in two-door coupe and four-door sedan configurations as well as convertible and station wagon versions. The 1962 Chevy II came in three series and five body stylesthe 100 Series, 300 Series and Nova 400 Series. The sportiest-looking of the lot was the $2,475 Nova 400 convertible23,741 were produced that year. Available engines for the Chevy II in 1962 and 1963 included a 153 cu in four-cylinder and a 194 ci inline-six. All Chevy II engines featured overhead valves. Although the Nova was not originally available with a V8 option, it wouldnt be long before Chevrolet V8s were offered as dealer-installed options (between 1962 and 1963), up to and including the fuel-injected version available in the Corvette. The combination of readily available V8 power and light weight made the Nova a popular choice of drag racers. In 1962 and 1963 the Nova option for the Chevy II was available in a convertible body style, and a two-door hardtop was available from 1962 to 1965, although the hardtop was dropped when the 1964 models were first introduced, but subsequently brought back to the line later in the model year. Like all Chevy two-door hardtops, the body style was marketed as the Sport Coupe.
This 1962 Nova has been subjected to a quality restoration and upgrade. The engine is now a strong running 350ci with HEI distributor and a Holley 4bbl mounted on an Edelbrock intake, backed with a 3-speed 350 automatic transmission, shifted through a B&M shifter. The engine features a HEI distributor. Stopping is an ease with 4 wheel disc brakes. Custom 1 of a kind hot wheels rims with new 215/45/ZR17s on all 4 corners. The interior is finished in medium blue fabric, and highlighted by the pearl light blue exterior with darker blue accents. This new restoration, completed July 2012, would be a great fun addition to your garage. $24,900.00 GIVE US A CALL OR EMAIL US WITH ANY QUESTIONS THAT YOU MAY HAVE... 909-626-5400 AMCLASSICS2@AOL.COM
