1969 Chevrolet Nova SS 350 Black on Black with 350ci V8 and Dual
Exhaust Why This Car Is Special The 1969 Chevrolet Nova SS is
widely regarded as the high point of the third-generation Novas
production run. Chevrolet completely restyled the Nova for 1968,
moving away from the boxy Chevy II body and introducing a longer,
lower, wider platform that shared its architecture with the Camaro.
By 1969, the design had matured and the Nova SS option package was
in full stride. The SS package in 1969 included a blacked-out
grille with SS badging, a specific hood, and a suspension tune that
made the Nova a legitimate performer not just a badge on an economy
car. The VIN on this car decodes to confirm it as a 1969 Chevrolet
Nova two-door hardtop body style, assembled at the Willow Run,
Michigan plant, and built with a V8 engine from the factory. The W
in the VINs engine position confirms the 350ci small block as the
original engine designation, and the sequential production number
places it squarely in the 1969 model year run. Chevrolet produced
just over 17,500 Nova SS units for 1969, making this a relatively
scarce survivor compared to the broader Nova lineup that year. This
particular 1969 Chevrolet Nova SS 350 presents in black over a
matching black interior a combination that was not offered on every
build and gives the car a serious, purposeful appearance. The
Edelbrock intake, long-tube headers, HEI ignition, and dual exhaust
are all modifications that a knowledgeable owner made thoughtfully
and with quality components. Nothing on this car was done halfway.

Black Interior Throughout Mechanical Under the hood of this 1969
Chevrolet Nova SS sits a 350ci small block V8, the correct engine
family for this car and one of the most well-supported engines in
automotive history. The 350 has been upgraded with a full Edelbrock
package intake manifold, valve covers, and air cleaner all matching
components from a brand that has built a reputation over decades
for producing bolt-on performance gains without sacrificing street
drivability. The Edelbrock aluminum intake manifold improves
airflow over the factory iron piece and is a logical complement to
the long-tube exhaust headers already installed on this car. The
headers feed into a true dual exhaust system, which you can see
clearly in the undercarriage photos. The exhaust runs are clean and
well-routed, with mufflers positioned symmetrically behind the rear
axle. From underneath, the car shows a solid, well-maintained
floorpan with no visible rot or patch work notable for a car of
this age. The frame rails and rear suspension components appear
intact and properly finished. Ignition duty is handled by an HEI
distributor, which replaced the factory points-style system. The
High Energy Ignition system produces a stronger spark across a
wider RPM range and requires no distributor cap maintenance the way
the original points setup does. It is a practical and reliable
upgrade that was actually introduced by General Motors itself in
1975 and has been a go-to swap on classic small blocks ever since.
The TH350 Turbo-Hydramatic 3-speed automatic transmission is
visible from underneath with its finned chrome pan clearly stamped
with the Turbo 350 designation. This transmission was
factory-matched to the 350ci engine in 1969 Nova SS applications
and is known for being compact, durable, and straightf WeBe Autos
