Vehicle Description
1964 Chevrolet Chevy II Nova Custom
The Nova was actually first introduced in 1962 as the Chevy II.
These cars were built on the X body platform and it wasn't until
1969 that they were referred to as the Nova. They were built to
compete with the Falcon and even had that same competing body
styles like the Sedan, Convertible, Wagon and Hardtop. The Chevy II
you are checking out here started life back in 64 but has undergone
a huge evolution over time. The original build was a 3 year process
done a little over 10 years ago. Since then it has evolved further
being fine tuned into the custom street machine it is today. It is
basically new from top to bottom with new sheet metal eliminating
any concern for rust or previous body repair. Every nut and bolt on
the car is new as well. The result is a 64 Chevy II that runs and
is actually much tighter and nicer than new. We aren't hating on
the original factory line but lets face it, they were cranking
these cars out as fast as possible. This one however has been
tediously built making sure everything is perfect and as nice as
possible. Whether you are cruising down the road or sitting in a
parking lot the car always draws a crowd and turns heads wherever
it goes. We aren't sure if its the beautiful Blue Pearl Metallic
paint or the ear catching rumble that grabs their attention so we
will let you be the judge of that. Whatever it is, this is the type
of car that demands to be looked at. This is a very high end build
with no corners cut anywhere and seeing it in person plus cruising
around the block will do nothing but confirm that. Check out the
following tables to get a complete breakdown of all the high

As you can see not a single component was left untouched during the
build and only top of the line parts were used throughout. It runs
down the road extremely well and is a car you can hop in and take
everywhere. A lot of times people see blowers and pro street which
leads them to believe you have to tune on them all the time. That
is absolutely not the case though. When built right these cars are
created for optimal performance and a car like this needs very
little maintenance. It has an excellent stance and sits on
Centerline Warrior Wheels with Mickey Thompson 31x18.5 Pro Street
Radials wrapped around the back.
The biggest downfall we have seen on a lot of pro street cars is
they seem to start skimping on the quality when it comes to the
interior. That couldn't be farther from the truth on this hot rod.
Just as much care was put into building a beautiful interior as
there was creating horsepower. It was completed by Portage Trim out
of Ohio. The high bucket leather seats, nicely upholstered rear
tubs and custom center console all add to the look of this high end
custom. It is all very well designed and is in excellent condition.
The dash is painted to match the body and features Autometer
gauges, custom gauge pods, a cool center mounted digital tach with
shift light and all chrome knobs, switches. The tilt column was
also painted to match the body and is topped off with a Billet
wheel. The electrical is all working properly and was entirely
redone with a 18 circuit Kwik Wire harness.
With all of the features packed into this car there is no doubting
we have left something out. Pro Touring, Pro Street, Hot Rod....No
matter what you want to call it this is one of the nicest custom
Chevy IIs/Nova out there.
You couldn't come close to building a custom like this for our
asking price of $62,500.00!
