Vehicle Description
One of the coolest things about the classic car hobby is the amount
of passion and creativity enthusiasts put into builds that can
sometimes span decades. And since pretty much everyone here at RK
Motors is a gearhead, we know the kind of dedication a high dollar
project takes. That said, it seems every time we think we've seen
it all, another completely amazing car comes through the doors and
just knocks our socks off! This eye-catching Nova is a head-turning
pro-tourer that mixes 6.2 liters of legendary LS power with a tough
automatic, a full Heidts chassis and one-of-a-kind aesthetics. And
if you're ready to feel the breeze behind the wheel of a storied
Detroit legend, it's a chance to turn your lust worthy dreams into
fantastic reality!
THE FAB '70S
The beneficiary of a ground-up restoration that was completed to a
high level of detail, this slick Chevy is the product of cool
patience and acute craftsmanship. Those skills shine bright under a
glowing coat of Metallic Blue two-stage. And that pigment provides
an excellent base for sharp, Yenko-style stripes and expressive
"Rally Nova" callouts that were painted and buried deep in clear.
At the front of those stripes, familiar Super Sport headlight
bezels point modern halo lamps at the sides of a classy billet
grille. A chrome bumper, complete with amber parking lamps,
reflects a traditional Nova hood that's complete with a flowing
"Rally Nova" script. Tinted and stainless-trimmed glass looks great
behind polished wipers and second-generation Camaro mirrors. Those
mirrors reflect a clean profile that's accented by filled markers
and factory handles. And at the back of the car, conservative
taillights shade a second chrome bumper and polished exhaust
tips.
POWER FOR MILES
Enact this Nova's polished Fesler hood supports and you'll find 6.2
liters of 21st Century small block that's top notch in virtually
every way! Created for Chevrolet's legendary Corvette, that awesome
LS3 revs stout 10.7 to 1 compression into an eager 430 horsepower!
At the top of the mill, a color-keyed Spectre filter slinks breeze
into a polished tube, which fronts a proven GM throttle body.
Reliable GM fuel rails trace a lightweight GM intake. Air meets
spark in rectangular-port L92-style heads, which ride under chromed
Chevrolet valve covers. A nodular crank, powdered connecting rods
and hypereutectic pistons compress that volatile union. A hydraulic
roller cam utilizes quality roller rockers to maximize intake
efficiency. Speaking of breathing, that smooth valvetrain funnels
spent gases through polished LS exhaust manifolds. Color-keyed
Taylor plug wires are equal parts form and function. There's a
massive Performance Rod & Custom radiator that's slid between a
spry puller fan and a polished expansion tank. Polished serpentine
components spin an aluminum water pump under a polished alternator
and a polished AC compressor. And, as you likely deduced from our
high-resolution photos, the Cast Aluminum mill rolls in a clean,
body-matched frame that's finished with niceties like Lokar sticks,
polished brake hardware, a polished closeout panel and a custom
shroud.
BETTER THROUGH TIME
Park this classic on a lift and you'll find glossy, body-matched
floorpans that provide a fitting backdrop for fresh, first rate
hardware. Behind the buff small block, a smooth 4L65E 4-speed
twists power to an aluminum driveshaft, which twists torque to a
dressed Ford 9-inch that's built with a posi-traction differential
and 3.73 gears. That pumpkin pushes a color-keyed Heidts 4-link,
which angles polished links around adjustable QA-1 coil-overs. That
kit gets led by a Heidts Pro-G front-clip, which cages two more
QA-1 coil-overs in polished control arms. The turns come easy
thanks to power rack-and-pinion steering. Power-assisted Wilwood
calipers squeeze a quartet of vented rotors. A mirrored fuel tank
provides ample 'go juice'. Large-diameter exhaust pipes parallel
sturdy subframe connectors on their way to throaty turbo mufflers.
And chromed Ridler 675s spin 245/45ZR17 Nitto NT555 Extreme ZRs in
front of 255/50ZR17 Nitto NT555 Extreme ZRs.
BETTER THROUGH TIME TOO
Pop this coupe's remote locks and you'll find a custom leather
interior that incorporates thoughtful upgrades into a sea of modern
flash. Front and center, retrofitted buckets provide a great
foundation for cruising. A factory-style dash floats fresh Dakota
Digital telemetry next to Vintage Air conditioning and crisp
Pioneer audio. A tasteful console frames billet power window
switches behind a serious B&M shifter. Clean carpet traces
color-keyed floor mats on its way to custom side panels. An
attractive Billet Specialties Fury wheel laps a polished tilt
column that's finished with Cruise Control. And polished Fesler
hinges provide access to a custom-upholstered trunk.
This striking Chevy is one of the coolest cruisers on the planet!
As it sits, the car offers the best of both worlds: a timeless,
fully restored classic, and a sweet pro-tourer that's virtually
guaranteed to hold its own anywhere you care to wheel. Call, click
