Vehicle Description
Gateway Classic Cars Houston Showroom is excited to offer this very
custom 1966 Chevrolet NOVA SS hardtop for sale. The striking maroon
exterior is paired beautifully with a sophisticated tan interior to
create a timeless and elegant aesthetic. This iconic model is
powered by a potent Chevrolet Small Block V8 engine, which is
backed by a 6-speed manual transmission. The SBC is reportedly a
391 CID stroker, based off a GM ZZ383, but we cannot verify the
displacement. The dyno sheets indicate it's pushing 479HP/426 Lb-Ft
torque at 5900 RPM. Clearly, the Brodix aluminum heads, Edelbrock
aluminum intake, Holley 4BBL, Dougs Headers, and custom dual
exhaust system help this mighty mouse breathe! This combo delivers
the power and performance enthusiasts crave.Further custom and
performance touches include a custom aluminum radiator with twin
electric fans, a CVF Black Diamond front of engine kit with
serpentine accessory drive, adjustable coilover shocks at all 4
corners (Aldans up front, and QA1 out back), a McLeod hydraulic
clutch and Lakewood scattershield. Out back, the Ford 9-inch rear
end features an adjustable multilink setup, with Strange
Engineering axles and Moser ring and pinion gears (ratio
unknown).Inside, the 1966 NOVA SS offers exceptional comfort and
modern conveniences. A Dakota Digital retro gauge cluster provides
a vintage look with modern accuracy for reporting key systems'
status. The custom diamond-stitch leather seating (with power
driver's seat) ensures a plush and adjustable driving experience
(plus, the cabin has that very pleasing aroma that high-grade hides
are known for). Adding to the driving pleasure is a Vintage Air
HVAC system, keeping the cabin cool and comfortable on every
journey. The chromed Flaming River tilt steering column with a
billet wheel provides both style and ergonomic control, while the
power steering with Flaming River rack ensures precise
maneuverability.Entertainment is at the forefront with a RetroSound
AM/FM/XM radio equipped with Bluetooth connectivity, allowing you
to enjoy your favorite tunes and stay connected on the go. The
power windows offer convenience and ease, seamlessly integrating
modern amenities into this classic vehicle. Both front and rear
occupants will appreciate the full-length center console, with its
polished redwood insert and custom cupholders for all.Safety and
performance have been enhanced with nitrogen-pressurized power disc
brakes featuring adjustable front/rear bias, and along with Wilwood
calipers and drilled/slotted rotors, offer superior stopping power.
The addition of BF Goodrich Radial T/A tires and Cragar wheels not
only boosts the vehicle's aesthetic appeal but also ensures a
smooth and reliable ride.This 1966 Chevrolet NOVA SS strikes a
great balance between vintage charm and modern upgrades, making it
an extraordinary choice for any classic car aficionado.
