INTRODUCTION: This real SS looks tough as nails! The slick black
body jacked up slightly in back for the massive wheels is hot! It's
not just bragging, it will walk the walk with its 383 stroker in
this lightweight hot rod!
EXTERIOR: This little tough guy has a clean straight body. It fits
nice, no rust or damage. It has a metal cowl hood with Camaro
grilles on top and a rear mount antenna. Painted Mercedes Deep
Black and it is polished to a slick and reflective finish. Overall
the chrome and trim is shiny and straight. The windshield and rear
window was replaced. Billet Specialties Dagger wheels: 17s in front
and 18s in back and extra wide!
INTERIOR: Restored to original with some tasteful upgrades. It was
first lined with Dynamat sound deadener then the black metal trim
was painted slick. The carpet was replaced and it has a set of Nova
mats. Seatbelts were added front and back. The seats were rebuilt,
recushioned and reupholstered. The door panels, armrests and
handles look new. Above it has a new headliner without wrinkles and
new visors. It has an optional padded dash and in the dash is a
tachometer and gauge cluster. Upgraded with a Retro stereo with
Bluetooth and modern gauges under the dash. The factory console is
updated with an overdrive shift indicator and the correct steering
wheel is on a tilt column.

driveshaft leads back to a 9 inch rear with Tru Trac 3.73 posi
gears. Detroit Speed mini tubs were installed for the wide

SERVICE: We take pride in our cars and reputation. Therefore, we
built a 2 million dollar, 10,000 square ft service center, and
hired a team of technicians to work it. This is so we can sell you
the best cars within reason.
CONCLUSION: I don't need to remind you how sharp looking this car
is but I will remind you how fun it is to drive! With all the
upgrades to the chassis this little Nova can handle the power from
the 383 stroker. The question is can you?
For nearly 30 years, I, Jay Grams, have personally written the
highlights for almost every car in our collection. What I provide
is my professional opinion based on my experience with these
vehicles. However, opinions can vary, and I strongly recommend a
personal inspection to form your own view. Our sales team is always
available to answer any questions you may have. One great option is
to request a personalized walk-around video, where we can showcase
the car and share our team's insights. **Our cars are displayed
within a museum setting. If you are interested in a specific
vehicle, please schedule an appointment with a salesperson to view
it. Without an appointment, there is an admission fee to enter the
showroom. If you decide to purchase a car, your admission will be
refunded, and you'll receive a one-year museum membership.
