For Sale: 1970 Chevrolet Nova in Lavergne, Tennessee

This 1970 Chevrolet Nova is a one-owner survivor that's a solid and complete base for whatever you want to create. After all, it's a real-deal patina sedan that carries one of the coolest silhouettes in classic cars today.

It's always great to find a car that has a story, what better one than a Chevy that was spent over a half-century under the same car. This one-owner car obviously didn't spend its life in a garage, but that's part of the charm here. After all, the paint is believed to be original, and it has gone into a full and charming patina. It has that ideal worn-in look that will be a catalyst for people asking questions. So you should get ready to talk about the history of this one...that is if you plan to keep it looking this original. After all, one of the reasons the Novas are so popular is because they are hardy cars that love upgrades. So the components are out there and affordable to turn this on into something quite unique. Another part that makes this generation so attractive is because they remind you of some other great Novas. After all, its current patina presentation has you thinking about Beverly Hills Cop. And items like the clear headlights and Rally wheels remind you of the full potential of these Chevys. In fact, if you're a fan of the Street Outlaws TV show, then we bet you're already having thoughts about your own "Moredoor" Nova.

The interior already has a touch of the custom attitude going for it. The front has been upgraded with high-back bucket seats and a center console in-between. The rear also has good space and a comfy cloth setup. Even with the new seating, there's a ton of originality left, and it certainly has the worn-in look of a half-century. But that also means you get some cool factory pieces, like the Delco AM radio that's still on display and the working speedometer that's as long as the horizon.

Under the hood is the numbers-matching 230 cubic-inch inline-six. So for those who love this car's one-owner story, it's great to have the correct powerhouse in this very honest engine bay. Of course there are also plenty of you who are thinking about all the big power V8s that fit in there so nicely. It even already has the racer's favorite Powerglide transmission. But really take an extra moment to understand what this car already is. The automatic transmission combines with the power brakes and smooth nature of the inline motor to make sure this one is an easy cruiser with some anytime appeal.

This one has all the potential to be anything from your favorite rat rod on day-one to the perfect base for a seriously cool sleeper. Basically, you have a solid, complete, and blank canvas to let your enthusiast's imagination run wild. But before you create your ultimate sedan, you need to call today!
