Vehicle Description
Factory-correct colors, huge investments in
restoration/preservation, and a fire-breathing big block under the
hood � that's why we love this 1971 Chevrolet Nova SS tribute, and
you will, too.
Speak softly but carry a big stick. That's the impression the
factory-correct Sandalwood paint immediately gives. The original
application of this sedate color will fool some into believing this
is just a nicely presented Nova with its mirror-like wide chrome
bumpers and compete trim. But then there are those who will
recognize the blacked-out SS grille, hood vents, and deeply tinted
windows. And that's the true key to this classic. It's a sleeper
for those not paying attention, but it rewards those who look a
little deeper.
That feeling continues on the interior. The deep dark back of the
seats, carpeting, dash, and door panels are the result of investing
in correct replacements that were not up to standard...but all you
see is a the result: a fantastic bucket seat car! Plus, we really
know your eyes immediately gravitated to the desirable center
console with auxiliary gauges. You'll slip behind the new sports
steering wheel and look out at the cool ultra-wide speedometer. But
then you also notice the correct tach to the left just as Chevy did
it in the '70s. And just above the original AM radio are the
controls for the ice-cold air conditioning running modern R134a.
See what we mean about all of the cool/quiet upgrades.
But your favorite investment in this Nova will be apparent the
moment you pop the hood. This is the kind of engine bay you'll love
showing off at the car shows because it takes sunglasses to look at
the big V8. Valve covers, hoses, the intake, the pulleys, and so
much more have been polished to a mirror-like shine. But beneath
all this flash is some serious substance. The 396 cubic-inch big
block crate motor has been enhanced with features like an Edelbrock
four-barrel carburetor, Edelbrock Performer intake, and Hedman
headers. But more than just pure power, it's backed up by reliable
components like an aluminum radiator and dual electric fans � that
means this A/C car can stay cool even in traffic! While you'll love
the growl of the dual exhaust, this beast is quite tame for the
road. Features like power steering, three-speed automatic
transmission, front disc brakes, and modern rubber on those iconic
Rally wheels give you superior control.
Complete with the original warranty card and owner's manual, this
Nova looks factory on the outside, subtly upgraded on the inside,
and has a big performance V8 heart... In other words, you're
perfect classic is waiting for you. Call today!!!
