Vehicle Description
This 1973 Chevrolet Nova offers a terrific mix of originality and
upgrades to create a V8-powered classic that will have plenty of
stories to tell. So dig in deep to the details, because this is a
classic with true personality.
This coupe was born a Dark Metallic Green car, but that's only the
beginning of the story. It was given a full respray in 2010 as part
of a comprehensive investment, and this Nova has been treated with
respect ever since. So you get a hint of what this was like
originally, but now with a deep clearcoat luster that the factory
could never have provided. And the upgrades don't stop there. Keen
eyes will notice this has the cleaner front end of the '72 cars,
and the rear was updated to match. Plus, there are nice aggressive
upgrades like the cowl induction hood, race-style gas cap, and
polished 15-inch torque thrust-style wheels.
Inside the factory-correct green interior looks nice, especially
with the correct green fabric inserts for extra comfort. With the
door panels, dash, carpeting, and even the trunk all finished
nicely in coordinating hues, this is a unique green machine inside
and out. This has nice original features like a speedometer as long
as the horizon and provisions for factory air conditioning. But
there are also plenty of room for upgrades. You get an AM/FM/CD/XM
radio with an upgraded subwoofer stereo system. Plus, there's a
sports steering wheel, auxiliary gauge trio, and large SunPro tach.
While that will give you a nice performance feeling, your favorite
piece will definitely be the Don "Big Daddy" Garlits autograph on
the glovebox.
Under the hood is the numbers-matching 350 cubic-inch V8. Just like
the rest of this car, they have the original pieces treated them to
some nice upgrades. So the original V8 looks great with the bold
block paint, bright air topper, and flame-etched valve covers. It
inhales deeply with the upgraded Edelbrock four-barrel carburetor
and Edelbrock intake. The long tube headers add even more power as
it also allows it to exhale with authority from the dual exhaust.
This powerful package is done right with the three-speed automatic
transmission even being rebuilt in 2008. And when all you want to
do is cruise, this Nova obliges with power steering and power
brakes.
Complete with build receipts, this is a strong-running Nova that is
the ideal mix of originality and cool upgrades. Something this
appealing won't stay here long at this price, so call today!
