Vehicle Description
Do you ever just look at a car and say, "Yes!" With its metallic
paint, nicely appointed interior, and modern fuel-injected V8
power, this rare 1963 Chevrolet II Nova convertible fits in with
the pony car crowd but gallops in its own direction.
You don't see too many of these Nova convertibles around do you?
They cost about as much as some Impalas when new, and so few were
willing to spend the extra cash on a droptop. It gave the
convertible Nova lower production numbers where you were over 10
times more likely to see a coupe or sedan than a ragtop. Today that
makes for quite a rare classic where scarcity buys true
distinction. These Chevy II Novas debuted a few years before the
Mustang, but this one has a lot of that same small size with
big-time flare that we loved from the pony cars. You see it in the
factory items that have been nicely maintained like bright grille
and wide chrome bumpers. But the real shine of this one is on the
modern application of Dark Red Metallic paint. There are barely any
miles on this classic since its restoration, and so it retains that
fresh clearcoat luster that makes this sunshine-friendly droptop
pop every time you take it out for a weekend cruise. In fact, they
liked the paint so much, it was applied to the custom 15-inch
steelie wheels with bright half-moon hubcaps for a full uniform
presentation.
With the touch of a button, the taut black soft top electrically
folds down to reveal a deep black interior - so you get that
perfect color combo of the dark red and black no matter if the top
is on or off. There has been a quality investment here to deliver
both well-presented original materials as well as plenty of great
upgrades. It starts with the bucket seats that follow the factory
pattern. You gaze-across the original-style dash, and it all looks
like a cool classic droptop should. But then you twist the key, and
beyond the upgraded sport steering wheel, the gauges begin to glow
a cool digital red. There's an AM/FM/CD stereo for all the best
modern tunes, and you even have provisions for modern R134a air
conditioning.
But your favorite upgrade in this whole package will be revealed
when you open the hood. These first-generation Novas would
eventually carry the famous 327 small-block, and this one goes wild
with that history. That's because it has a modern 5.3-liter
fuel-injected Vortec V8 living under the hood. That means a serious
upgrade to the growl of the dual exhaust and a serious power boost
to this lightweight Nova body. But more than just a sleek sleeper
droptop, the modern powerplant also adds reliability. This is
combined with other great features like a four-speed automatic
transmission w/overdrive, an aluminum radiator with electric fan,
power steering, and front disc brakes. Now you've also got the
recipe for one of the easiest cruising classics around.
Beautiful, rare, powerful, and an all-around driver - this is the
best of everything. And if you hurry, it can all be yours. Call
