Very detailed, ground up restoration! This is a real Nova Super
Sport V8 car that is designated right in the VIN. Rare a/c, power
steering and brakes.
EXTERIOR: The body is in amazing shape. There's no rust or damage
whatsoever, straight and fits very nicely. Repainted it's original
Lemon Wood yellow and it's polished to a smooth glass finish,
better than when it was new. The glass has all been replaced. All
the weather strips and seals are new. The chrome and trim is either
new or restored. The bumper guards, tail panel and vent window
frames are very good original. It's rolling on a set of original SS
hubcaps in excellent shape with American Classic blackwall tires.
Correct T-3 headlights.
INTERIOR: It is absolutely spotless. I'm looking at a pristine
dash: the speedometer, bezels, knobs and even the heater control
panel are spotless. It has a clock and it's working The dash pad,
glove box door and liner and even the heater box under the dash are
like new. The A/C unit sparkles. A factory center console with the
correct 4-speed shifter sits between the seats. Down on the floor
is new carpet and embroidered mats. It has deluxe seat belts. The
seats have been reupholstered. The door panels, armrests, window
cranks, headliner, visors, dome light and mirror look new! New
wiring harness front to back.
ENGINE COMPARTMENT: This motor compartment is pristine, it looks
like it's never been started. It has the correct 327 motor making
275 hp. It has the double hump heads, correct 4 barrel carb, stock
manifolds, valve covers and air cleaner right down to the stickers.
It features power steering and power brakes with a cadmium plated
booster. The wiper motor, alternator, horns, pulleys radiator all
look like new. It also has factory air conditioning. It has a Delco
battery topper and spring clamp cables. The metal surfaces are
painted meticulously. The squirters are hooked up, it even has the
glass bottle of concentrate.
TRUNK COMPARTMENT: Under the trunk lid and the jamb are smooth
glossy paint. Inside is pristine metal with a very neatly applied
gray and white spatter paint. It has reproduction trunk mat and
weather strip. Reproduction tire for a spare on a restored rim with
a restored jack assembly. It even includes a new car cover.
UNDERSIDE: Underneath this car is really impressive! The sheet
metal is about as dry and clean as you will ever find. The floors,
braces, rockers are as dry as a chalkboard. The front end steering
and suspension is completely rebuilt and detailed. The rear
suspension is rebuilt. The brake system has been completely redone.
The lines are replaced, e-brake is hooked up. It has a new factory
correct dual exhaust system. The fuel system has been replaced.
Looking up at the motor it is absolutely spotless Chevy Orange, the
starter looks brand new. It has a correct Muncie 4-speed trans that
also looks fresh. Rebuilt driveshaft and rear end.
SERVICE: We inspected the car in our shop and rebuilt the
carburetor, fixed the reverse lights, repaired the horn, lubed the
speedometer cable and head. The a/c is inop.
This is an impressive restoration! These little Novas could be
ordered with a 6 cylinder, 283 or a 327. A 327 4 barrel is a spunky
motor for such a small car. This is a very desirable piece. The
restoration would cost more than we are asking not to mention good
luck find a real SS with floors as clean as this to start with!
I, Jay Grams, take pride in personally writing the descriptions for
virtually every car for about the last 30 years now. A significant
amount of effort goes into fact checking. What I am offering is my
professional impression of the vehicle.
Our salesmen are happy to assist with descriptions and making sure
your questions are answered. One great suggestion is letting us do
a walk around video that explains the car's condition in
detail.
