Vehicle Description
Known as "Reflection," this stunning '70 Nova was designed and
restored to be a step above most second-generation Novas, and that
it is. It's a Detroit Autorama award-winner and the award is
included. As the VIN indicates, this vehicle was built in Willow
Run, MI, as a 1970 Chevrolet Nova 2-door with a 6-cylinder. At some
point it was restored as an SS 396 and then sold by a classic car
dealership to a gentleman who wanted to make a masterpiece out of
it. The plan was to build a vehicle that was modern but still
shared some of the original characteristics. With an open checkbook
the car was completely restored, which is documented with tons of
receipts and photos that are included. The exterior body is
stunning with its cowl hood, straight body, tight gaps and
beautiful paint. It was finished in Porsche GT Silver with BMW
Space Gray racing stripes. All of the trim was finished in Satin
Gray, which looks amazing. Some of the custom features include
all-new tinted glass, front grille, AGT LED headlights, front
bumper, Ringbrothers door handles, Fesler billet LED taillights,
tail panel and rear bumper. The car sits on 17-inch American Racing
Torq Thrust wheels that have a gray center and polished lip. When
the door opens it only gets better, with a fully custom gray
leather interior. The entire interior was covered in Dynamat
insulation for sound and heat. The dash was painted gray and
outfitted with a Classic Dash carbon-fiber cluster with AutoMeter
Cobalt gauges along with custom switches. It has 2011 Dodge
Challenger front bucket seats and rear seat with fold-down center
armrest. The door panels are matching with perforated and pleated
inserts, along with French seams. Some of the custom features
include a Bright Touch billet rearview mirror, Ididit chrome tilt
steering column, Billet Specialties steering wheel with
carbon-fiber wrap and horn button, console, shifter, power windows,
power driver's seat, power door locks with alarm, front 3-point
retractable front seat belts, rear seat belts, carbon-fiber-wrapped
package tray, carpeting with floor mats and Alpine 5-speaker sound
system. The trunk compartment was painted gray and covered with
carpeting. The trunk houses a matching full-size spare, battery
box, and power cutoff knob. The engine compartmented is highly
detailed throughout. The firewall was smoothed and painted body
color, along with the backside of hood and inner fenders. It's
equipped with black aluminum Ringbrothers hood hinges. The heart of
this vehicle is a built 396ci V8 engine that runs excellent. Some
engine upgrades include competition cam, roller rockers, Edelbrock
water pump, Chevrolet valve covers and custom air cleaner. It has a
Holley Avenger carburetor, MSD electronic ignition system, custom
pulleys and heat shrink clamps. The engine is cooled by a Northern
aluminum radiator with HP electric fan, custom overfill canister
and custom radiator support cover. The engine breathes through
Patriot ceramic headers and stainless mandrel bent exhaust with
X-pipe and Pypes mufflers. The engine is coupled to a TREMEC TKO
600 5-speed manual transmission with RAM clutch, Lakewood bell
housing and American Powertrain driveshaft. The power is
transferred to a 12-bolt Eaton posi-traction rear end with Moser
axles, 3.55 gears and billet differential cover. The undercarriage
is nicely detailed with many upgrades. It's equipped with a Flaming
River power rack & pinion steering system and CPP front suspension,
including the sway bar and upper and lower control arms. The rear
suspension consists of Calvert CalTracs traction bars. The power
braking system consists of a black booster, Wilwood master
cylinder, CPP front and rear disc brakes. This vehicle has been
recently serviced and detailed, which is all documented with an
invoice that is included. From the MS CLASSIC CARS Collection.
