The console and woodgrain trim are nice touches, and the addition of the extra gauges is wise with an engine of the car’s displacement.Ī Turbo-Hydramatic (TH 400) takes care of all the shifting for the driver and power steering and brakes are present to help with the heavy lifting. The black interior looks quite inviting, with later model or aftermarket bucket seats resting where the original buckets or bench would have been. There are a couple of spots on the right rear quarter that might have some marks, or it could be the lighting. The red paint is quite shiny, but we’re not sure of the shade as Cranberry Red is listed in the Chevy cross-reference charts and this color is lighter than that (Cherry Red?). Whatever rust or other issues it may have earned prior to 2016 have been left in the past. The badging can be a giveaway, but this car checks out properly except for the engine script on the front fenders.Īt any angle you look, this Nova looks spotless. But was the car originally an SS that had a bigger engine added or is it a clone or tribute car? We don’t know and identifying these cars as the real deal is an imperfect science. As the Nova SS models for 1970 could only be had with a 350 or 396 engine, this motor is not original to the car. The seller offers a beautiful machine with a five-year old restoration which presents well. Purists would argue that this is heresy, but it does increase the supply of these sought-after cars. This often occurs when regular street Nova’s are restored and converted in Super Sports with powerful engines added. The Nova, especially the ’69-72 editions, are popular cars for being cloned. Lauderdale, Florida, this Nova is available here on craigslist for $29,500.

But the workmanship looks stunning and this should be a car capable of chewing up a lot of asphalt. This beautiful version from 1970 is equipped with a 427, which had to be a replacement when the car was restored in 2016. If you ordered a Super Sport version in the first three model years, you could choose from a 350 small block or 396 big block V8. Third-generation Chevy Nova’s would run from 1968-74 and be the most popular for the nameplate.
