For Sale: 1972 Chevrolet Nova in Lavergne, Tennessee

This 1972 Chevrolet Nova takes its status as a real-deal Super Sport and turns the performance desirability up a few notches. So it has a hot small block, four-on-the-floor, the right suspension upgrades, and a terrific growl. And you get to enjoy it all from the comfort of an A/C interior.

We have the buildsheet for this Nova, and it tells us a lot. First, the K-code for the motor lets us know it was born a true Super Sport. But it also tells us other desirable features, like how this hot SS was born a Cranberry Red car. It looks bright and clean, and overall, there's an appearance/attitude of a car that's easy to drive/enjoy. After all, that's what a good muscle car classic is all about. So not only do the chrome bumpers shine but also the upgraded Cragar SS wheels. A true Super Sport means details like the blackout grille, blackout real panel, SS badging, and a vent trim hood. Plus, you have the awesome stance that tells this world this one is extra special. the

The black interior looks great against the exterior red. But what we really like here is how this one blends vintage style and the right upgrades. So you get great-looking classic pieces like the wide bench seats, detailed door panels, wide speedometer, and thin/grippy steering wheel. Even the dome light greets you when the door opens. But this one also loves to be a real driver's car. That's why you have the auxiliary gauge package, column-mounted tach, and Hurst floor shifter. And this Nova even has cold-blowing R134a air conditioning.

The engine bay was made to be showcased. The dark inner walls funnel all your attention to the huge investment in polished components. More than just style, this one has substance. The K-code Novas SS cars had a 350 cubic-inch V8, and so this one keeps that displacement. But the upgraded motor adds go-fast goodies like aluminum heads, a Holley double-pumper four-barrel carburetor, an Edelbrock intake, and long tube headers. And there are terrific details for a true driver. It ranges from the aluminum radiator with electric fan to the electric cutouts that really let this powerhouse rumble. The four-speed manual transmission puts you in firm control over the power. In fact, control is a central theme with rear traction bars, a rear sway bar, power steering, power brakes, and front discs.

This real-deal Super Sport reminds you that Novas love to pack serious power into a lightweight package. So if you're looking for the right mix of history, showmanship, and muscle, you know this is your Chevy. Call today!!!
