Vehicle Description
For sale in our Denver showroom is a 1966 Red Chevy Nova. This red
demon was recently restored and painted in 2016. With a loud and
healthy 350 stroked to 383. Backed by a Richmond 5 speed. That same
year Man reached the moon, and the Green Bay Packers won the NFL
Championship game. One year before the first Super Bowl. The
Chevrolet Chevy II/Nova was a small automobile manufactured by
Chevrolet, and produced in five generations for the 1962 through
1979, and 1985 through 1988 model years. Nova was the top model in
the Chevy II lineup through 1968. The Chevy II nameplate was
dropped, Nova becoming the nameplate for the 1969 through 1979
models. Built on the X-body platform, the Nova was replaced by the
1980 Chevrolet Citation introduced in the spring of 1979. 1966
Chevy IIs introduced an extensive sharp-edged restyle based in part
on the Super Nova concept car. In general, proportions were squared
up but dimensions and features changed little. Highlights included
a bold grille and semi-fastback roofline. "Humped" fenders in an
angular rear end were reminiscent of larger 1966 Chevrolets, though
the 1966 Chevy II and Nova had vertical taillights and single
headlights. The '66 Chevy II sales brochure clearly promoted the
Super Sport as the "Chevrolet Chevy II Nova Super Sport," but the
name "Nova" was not used anywhere on the body. Front and rear
emblems displayed "Chevy II SS. To view the car in greater detail,
