Vehicle Description
This 1970 Chevrolet Nova is a unique blend of muscle car and
restomod. It takes the big power Nova idea and brings it into the
modern age with a fuel-injected and turbocharged LS-based V8. And
as you look at the upgrades to the body, suspension, and interior,
you can see a custom that was thoughtfully constructed to be
distinct.
The ways this Nova is different starts with the paint. It's a 2020
application of a color best described as "Blurple" because it often
looks like a deep blue, but you get it out in the sunlight, and it
has a purple-like radiance. So it never gets mistaken for the kind
of finish that comes from the factory. Of course, that's far from
the only deviation from stock. It's a truly intimidating machine
with the side of the power dome in the cowl hood. And the RC Comp
Hammer S wheels are an expensive addition, but they are worth it
for their strength and style. Plus, they help draw attention to the
awesome forward-leaning stance and extra-wide rear rubber. And
while this one is bold and aggressive, you also can see it also
likes getting noticed for being a quality classic. The crystal
clear headlights, bright chrome bumpers, and overall good body
panel fit is part of this car's memorable presentation.
The interior is dark and stylish. Pieces like the bench seat and
wood-like trim seem very stock and untouched. It's kind of nice
just because it feels like this Nova stays in touch with its
classic car roots. But as you turn it on, the true nature of the
beast really awakens. The classic wide speedometer has a bright and
modern glow. The same goes for the factory-style tach. And where
there used to just be filler space on the gauge panel now has been
upgraded to a full digital readout setup. The TCI floor shifter is
the kind of professional product we love on an upgraded Nova like
this, but the Leash Electronics boost controller lets you know that
there's something extra special under the hood.
You'll be showing off the engine bay just to showcase the full
power build. This is a 6.0-liter V8 there we're told was rebuilt
with LS9 internals, including the head gaskets, lifters, pistons,
and crank. It also has modified LS3 heads, a Melling high volume
oil pump, and Holley Sniper high rise intake with 80 lb injectors.
And the On3 88mm performance turbocharger boosts the whole power
package into the stratosphere. It's supported by the right pieces,
like an aluminum radiator with electric fan and an Optima battery
placed in the trunk for ideal weight distribution. As you look
underneath, you'll spot the upgraded tubular A-arm independent
front end, subframe connectors, and CalTrac bars. And making sure
all this power gets to the pavement is a Ford 9-inch rear with 4.10
gear and those wide Mickey Thompson street slicks. The overall
impression you'll get of this one is that it's built to be a solid
performer, but you'll also appreciate how it's a solid overall
driver. For example, the four-speed automatic transmission is built
with a stall for a better powerband, but it's not so high that it
eliminates a full rev range. And that transmission also has
overdrive that will genuinely cruise on the highway. A new power
steering system, power brakes, and front discs with drilled &
slotted rotors make for a good all-around cruising package.
