1969 Chevrolet Chevy II Nova Yenko Tribute
Offered for sale is an outstanding 1969 Chevrolet Chevy II Nova
coupe, tastefully built in the style of the legendary Yenko Super
Nova and combining classic muscle car styling with serious
big-block performance. Finished in vibrant red with iconic white
Yenko-style stripes running across the cowl hood and body sides,
this Nova captures the aggressive appearance of one of the most
sought-after muscle cars of the era. From its muscular stance to
its unmistakable big-block rumble, this Nova is sure to turn heads
wherever it goes.
Under the hood sits a powerful 454 cubic-inch big-block Chevrolet
V8, providing the kind of torque and performance enthusiasts expect
from a true street machine. Performance upgrades include an MSD
electronic distributor, a Weiand Street Warrior aluminum intake
manifold, ceramic-coated long-tube headers, chrome valve covers
with Yenko/SC-style decals, and an auxiliary electric pusher fan to
help keep temperatures under control. The engine is paired with a
legendary Muncie 4-speed manual transmission, sending power to a
durable 12-bolt rear axle equipped with a PosiTraction
differential. A dual exhaust system featuring Flowmaster mufflers
delivers the deep, unmistakable sound that perfectly complements
this Nova's aggressive personality.
The exterior has been refinished in striking red and accented with
white Yenko SC-style stripes, creating a timeless muscle car
appearance. Additional details include Yenko-style and 427 emblems,
chrome bumpers, quarter vent windows, and classic 15-inch American
Racing Torq Thrust wheels wrapped in BF Goodrich Radial T/A raised
white-letter tires. Power-assisted front disc brakes paired with
rear drum brakes provide confident stopping power, making this Nova
as enjoyable to drive as it is to admire.
Inside, the black vinyl bench-seat interior retains its classic
muscle car character while incorporating tasteful performance
upgrades. A Hurst floor shifter places the Muncie 4-speed firmly in
your hand, while AutoMeter Pro-Comp gauges for coolant temperature
and oil pressure, an auxiliary tachometer, and a column-mounted
shift light allow you to keep a close eye on the engine during
spirited driving. A RetroSound audio receiver provides modern sound
quality while maintaining a vintage appearance, and a conveniently
located USB port and 12-volt outlet add everyday practicality
without compromising the car's classic feel.

Chevy II Nova SS two-door coupe (Style 69 11427), assembled at
