Vehicle Description
Everyone knows about the virtues of the Chevrolet Nova. You don't
need us to know that it's attractive, that it's got timeless
styling, and that it's universally cool. This 1974 Chevrolet Nova
is no different, packing a small-block powerplant under the hood
and pairing it to a universally attractive bodystyle. Powered by a
Chevrolet small-block V8 breathing through a 4-barrel carburetor,
this '74 Nova makes for one fantastic cruiser. Torque is put to the
pavement through a TH350 3-speed automatic transmission, which
connects to a 10-bolt rear axle and shifts seamlessly. The
exterior's white paint is an older job, but it still looks
fantastic spread out over this Nova's laser-straight bodylines.
Complimenting chrome and black trim pieces point forward toward the
front of the car, which really helps to make this Nova stick out!
In addition, the floors, frame, trunk and jambs on this Nova are
all rock-solid and in great shape. Opening the twin doors reveals a
good-looking black vinyl interior, complete with comfy bench seats
that are perfect for cruise nights. The factory gauges are still in
the dashboard, and an aftermarket steering wheel allows you to
change course in style. Options on this sweet '74 Nova include
power steering, power brakes, front disc brakes, a serpentine belt
system, a heater + defroster, a driver's-side chrome mirror,
factory gauges, under-dash aux. gauges, and a mean-sounding dual
exhaust system. The car rides on a set of aggressive 15" gray
5-spoke wheels over staggered blackwall tires, skinny in the front
and fat in the rear, ensuring that this Nova has a mean stance
that's hard to ignore. With the combination of a V8, an automatic
powertrain, and sweet-sounding dual exhausts, this '74 Nova runs
and drives down the road effortlessly. It's an uncommon Nova with a
great stance, great styling, and good power! Rest assured, this is
one fun-driving cruise night car, so don't let it pass you by!
