This 1962 Chevrolet Nova is an all-out Pro Street build that perfectly blends classic early-'60s styling with modern LS performance and serious chassis engineering. Finished in a rich metallic brown sourced from a 2020 GMC Sierra and paired with a clean black interior, the car has an aggressive yet refined presence. Sitting on 17" Boze wheels finished in Highland Bronze powder coat and wrapped in near-new tires, the stance is exactly what you want-wide, planted, and purposeful thanks to its mini-tubbed rear and upgraded suspension setup.

Under the hood is a 2008 LY6 6.0L LS engine, sourced as a low-mile takeout with just 23K miles and thoughtfully upgraded for performance and reliability. It features forged Wiseco pistons with a mild dome, yielding an 11.2:1 compression ratio that still runs comfortably on 91-93 pump gas. The bottom end remains stout and stock bore, paired with a Comp camshaft designed for square port heads. Stainless Works headers feed into a full Pypes stainless exhaust with an H-pipe, and the entire setup is dialed in with a custom dyno tune by Norris Motorsports using the OEM computer. The result is a strong, responsive LS combination that delivers modern power with classic attitude.

Backing the powerplant is a ZF6 Black Label 6-speed manual transmission paired with a short throw shifter and a Luk ZR1-style clutch, offering a raw, driver-focused experience. Power is transferred through a Patterson 1000hp-rated driveshaft to a fortified GM 10-bolt rear end featuring Dana 4.10 gears, a Detroit TruTrac posi unit, and Ford 9-inch ends converted to accept bolt-in 9" axles and bearings from Mitchell Differential. A forged pinion yoke and rear disc brakes round out a drivetrain built to handle serious power.

The chassis and suspension have been completely reworked with performance and safety in mind. A TCI Pro Touring front clip and TCI rear 4-link system provide modern handling characteristics, while subframe bracing adds rigidity throughout. Stopping power comes from a Wilwood 6-piston big brake kit up front, paired with a Wilwood master cylinder and all new brake lines. The car is further reinforced with a 6-point chromoly S&W roll bar built to NHRA spec, making it as capable on the strip as it is intimidating on the street.

Inside, the Nova features a race-inspired yet clean and functional cockpit. Sparco racing seats with 5-point harnesses keep you planted, while an IDIDIT tilt steering column and a full set of VDO gauges-including a GPS-calibrated speedometer via Dakota Digital-bring modern usability into the mix. The interior has been refreshed with new carpet, headliner, dome light lens, door hardware, window regulators, and weather stripping, creating a tight and well-finished cabin.

The exterior has undergone an extensive restoration with all new glass, bumpers, trim, and key body panels including the hood, fenders, doors, and full quarters. The underside of all panels has been undercoated, and finishing touches like the correct 1962 grille, drip rail trim, and tail lights keep the car true to its roots while elevating its overall presentation.

This Nova is not just a build-it's a fully sorted Pro Street machine with high-end components, thoughtful engineering, and a presence that stands out anywhere it goes. Whether you're looking for a show-stopper, a weekend street car, or something capable of serious performance, this one checks every box.
