For Sale: 1966 Chevrolet Nova in Ft Worth, Texas

A sleek appearance, five-speed transmission, and strong V8 power come together on this 1966 Chevrolet Nova. It really delivers that classic hardtop look that also signals that this one has something extra.


The impressiveness of this coupe starts with a high gloss finish that gives a first impression that's both performance and premium. After all, a hard black shine is great for reflecting the midnight neon of a well-spent Saturday night. And it only gets better in the daytime. When the sunlight hits this coupe, it really makes the well-creased details of the sheet metal pop. Another reason why we love the paint is that the darkness shows off the full brightwork package. This includes the wraparound chrome bumpers and premium Nova full-length trim. People looking for a show car may want to give it a polish, but overall, we like how this is clean, complete, and vintage. They even opted for a more classic wheel package rather than bright alloys that would make this look less vintage. Instead, the two-piece wheel covers are subtly speedy with the color-matched black steel wheels wrapped in modern radial tires.


The black returns inside and now it's joined by plenty of white to give this the same kind of appeal as formalwear. The fundamentals look quite clean and in good shape everywhere from the carpeting to the dash. And there are nice details like the trim in the seatbacks and working dome light. While these might have been referred to as the compact line in '66, in today's world, that means offering plenty of space for family and friends. This even has an upgraded AM/FM/cassette stereo to keep them entertained. But what you'll really love is how this is already a driver-ready package. There are front bucket seats, a Lecarra steering wheel, power steering, and auxiliary gauges under the dash. Plus, the large tach goes well with the sturdy floor shifter.


The engine bay has a tidy look of power. The 283 cubic-inch V8 is an era-correct block and the exact kind of powerhouse you'd find on a Nova of this year. But the custom-painted valve covers and air grabber also signal this one was built for power. It includes a Holley four-barrel carburetor, Weiand intake, and headers. There's even an upgraded cam for a nicer power curve and added rumble through the dual exhaust and Flowmaster mufflers. It's quite an eager motor, and you get to fully harness the power with the upgraded five-speed manual transmission.


This is the sleek small block Nova hardtop done with all the right style, power, and upgrades. It's a stunner on the streets and fun to drive, which is why the total package is irresistible. Call today!!!
