For Sale: 1969 Chevrolet Nova in Concord, North Carolina

This 1969 Chevrolet Nova has a mean stance that tells you there's some serious power within. And when you lift the hood, the stout-built big block makes sure this one lives up to your full muscle car expectations. In fact, you will even be surprised by some extra you didn't expect, like a comfy interior and an overdrive transmission.

Novas always make for terrific, custom, muscle car because they take a compact size that can also fit a ton of power. But before we dive too deep into the monster motor, let's appreciate the style of this handsome burgundy coupe. The finish is a few years old and gives the car a grown-up look. And the shine it gives off goes with the chrome bumpers and clean grille to make for a solid vintage presentation. No stripes, no spoilers, not even any fake SS badges - just a cowl induction hood that seems perfectly appropriate. Of course, the Weld racing wheels and deeply tinted windows do also give away more if this Chevy's true nature. The whole car fits together rather well with doors that close easily, a hood that fits flush, and just a bit of rake to accentuate the Nova's semi-fastback profile. Up close, you'll note that the badges on the front fenders read '427' which gets friends excited to lift the hood and other cars nervous at red lights.

The black interior is clean, dark, and built for a speed machine. That means the best upgrades focus on performance. You have high-back bucket seats up front, a B&M floor shifter, and a small-diameter Grant sports steering wheel. In fact, the wheel is on a tile column so you get a good view of the full upgraded gauge package. And while there's an AM/FM/CD stereo, your real favorite soundtrack starts in the engine bay.

This earns its power bulge in the hood with all that V8 power contained within. The 427 crank tells us you have Chevy's magic displacement for big block muscle. It's ready to show off with the air topper, valve covers, alternator, pulleys, and all those other polished components in this tidy setup. But what you'll really love is that this has been enhanced with Quick Fuel four-barrel carburetor, Edelbrock intake, and a nice set of long tube headers that add power while also contributing to the rumble of the dual exhaust. You've even got nice supporting components, like a serpentine belt drive and aluminum radiator w/electric fan. The 700R4 4-speed automatic transmission is a stout unit that gives you better ratios to utilize the power and give you highway-friendly overdrive. As you look underneath, you'll spot subframe connectors that reinforce the chassis. And this also has good anytime driving features, power steering, power brakes, and front discs.

When this much power and poise is put in a lightweight classic, you know you have to move fast to catch this fast Nova. Call now!
