Vehicle Description
This 1965 Chevrolet Chevy II has that clean/classic stock look that
instantly transports you to another time. But with a strong V8 and
four-on-the-floor, this one also reminds you that these were the
best sleepers of the era.
These first-gen Chevy IIs have some great-looking lines. Over half
a century later, we really get to appreciate the front end with a
hint of overhang, full-length sheetmetal crease, and the well-done
flare on the rear fenders. Wraparound chrome bumpers, a bright
grill, and some nice trim are all part of a classic stock look,
too. The red paint has a good clearcoat shine, but nothing too
extreme to give away the sleeper nature. The same goes for the
stock wheels with dog dish hubcaps. So few people will probably
pick up on the extra wide tires in the rear.
The interior shows more of the cool/classic economy car feeling.
Durable rubber flooring, simple door panels, and a grippy
dual-spoke steering wheel prove that any investments were all about
keeping a true Chevy II style. The seats look terrific as with go
with the rest of the red interior. At the same time, the textured
cloth inserts are a reminder that being budget-friendly Chevy
didn't mean they skipped out on panache. Just like the exterior,
the interior could really pass for a cool time capsule two-door
sedan... at least until you spot the auxiliary gauges and Hurst
floor shifter.
The glossy black inner walls and ribbed valve covers signal that
it's much harder to hide this car's true nature once you pop the
hood. After all, only the best first-gen Chevy II Novas got small
block power, and this 350 cubic-inch unit is larger than anything
made available to even them. And the upgrades don't stop there. You
have go-fast goodies like an Edelbrock four-barrel carburetor,
Offenhauser intake, MSD ignition, and a custom set of headers. The
motor fires up with that unmistakable wallop of extra power inside
the V8, and the H-pipe dual exhaust has a sweet tune. Best of all,
the Muncie four-speed manual transmission firmly puts you in the
center of the action.
If you love a good sleeper car, you know how great this Chevy II
is. Don't miss out on a true vintage piece of American blacktop
fun. Call today!!!
