Vehicle Description
1967 Chevrolet II Nova
"Up with good looks. Down with high prices. The stylish economy
car" said the 1967 Nova sales brochure. The high-powered Turbo Fire
327ci V8 that had been introduced the previous as the
top-of-the-line engine option was discontinued for 1967. The Nova
SS got a new black accented grille. Optional front disc brakes were
made available for the first time.
With the introduction of the Turbo-Fire engine in 1966, the Nova SS
had snuck its way into a muscle car label, despite its small
stature. Really, it was somewhere in between the pony car and
muscle car class. Though its power had been diminished in 1967, it
was still a quick car that would become quicker as the years wore
on. For consignment a 1967 with some of that zapped power put back
in with some boring and stroking, and an overall great looker, and
a 2-owner car...Read onward!
Exterior
Painted in Mercedes Storm Red, straight steel panels, great trim,
and chrome, and shiny Chevrolet rally rims (14 x 6 front and 14 x 7
rear) are seen on this very original looking simple but elegant
grocery getter. Most of the exterior work was done at the 44,000
mile mark, and I can note well done, with very nicely applied
paint, and time well spent on the polishing of the chrome. I would
not go so far as to say frame off, however it truly is a
restoration that was meticulously performed.
Interior
A 1971 Oldsmobile was the donor for the interior seating, which
presents nicely in black vinyl with gold piping. New carpet, also
in black and refurbished door panels with this work being performed
in 1993. An A/C system with R134A refrigerant blows cold and works
sufficiently even on the hottest day. Headliner is tight, and dash
is all straight and true with no cracks or dulling. A custom rear
interior deck sports a bow tie logo and stitched "Deuces Wild"
within.
Drivetrain
The restored 327ci mill, which has been bored .30 over, decked, a
polished steel crank, 202 fuelly heads, SS Valves, hardened valve
seats, new guides, reconditioned rods and a 350 cam with .447
I&E lift, this is a performer to say the least. Topped by a 600
CFM Holley dual plane intake and backed by a 700 R4 rebuilt
automatic transmission with a Best shift kit with converter. A 1200
stall is installed in front of the shift column and has an
adjustable converter lockup. Headman Headers snake their way past a
10-bolt rear.
Undercarriage
Like new with no surface rust to be seen...all buttoned up and
shiny. Very nice job underneath.
Well restored, well upgraded in the engine department, and nicely
done interior, we have a runner, and a gunner. If you are looking
for a smaller muscle car classic this one is truly a wild
deuce!
