1963 "Psycho Too" Gasser Chevy II Nova

This Historic Nova needs no introduction.....as it has an extensive history. Perhaps the most historic Nova Gasser of all.

This 1963 Chevy II sold brand new at Nickey Chevrolet. The car was raced by a local Nickey mechanic, then it was purchased by Joe Szabo and Ralph Richter. They took the car to Wisconsin to R&B and Lil' John Buttera did his magic on it. The engine is a crate L88 with 12.5 pistons. It has a Hilborne mechanical fuel injection system, the trans is a clutch flight Turbo 400, and a BOP rear end with a 5.13 and welded spider gears. The rear wheels are chrome reverse and the front are spindle mount Halibrand (real magnesium). All of the parts on the car were restored. The 4 piston Hurst Airheart brakes are the originals to the car just rebuilt with new pads and seals.

The drive train was completed by Wolf engines, Dyno results at just under 700 HP. The lettering on the car was all copied and stenciled before the project was started and "Brando" hand laid all of the lettering and silver leaf.

I know this car well, and the level of the restoration far exceeds the normal race car type of work. It was faithfully restored with all the critical pieces being original to the car. When it debuted a few years ago, it received more oohs &amp; aahs than any car at the show. If I remember correctly, the Szabo family came to the show just to see this car, and were extremely emotional over seeing their dad's car in such fabulous condition.
