Look at the attention the novas are getting right now. Keep up the good work. Wilma, I agree with what you said in your posts.

My very first car was a new 1969 SS nova. Wish I kept it. The camaros were new in 67 so Chevy pushed those sleek looking cars ahead of everything except the corvette.
Novas were the economy versions for Chevy since the corvair went out in 69.

Thanks...they are both really survivors.

The 4spd car is an incredible time capsule...all original components, drive-line...amazing car with a trunk load of paperwork. The TH400 car was in storage for many years after an early life of drag racing. Somebody did some surgery on the nose...fenders are not original and some of the other parts have GM tags still on them...maybe a fender bender..maybe a deer...who knows

But the drive-line is all the real deal...and with 4.10 gears it really moves...a lot of fun to drive on the street and strip. I added headers, 163 intake, 850 Holley and a few other items...it is a blast to drive.

I sold my 69 L78 Chevelle, 70 RS/Z28, and 68 Z28. All numbers, very correct and original cars. I kept my 427 70 Nova. There is a reason I kept the Nova. More fun to drive. Period.

Novas are like lone wolves and the Black ones are and in my day were the baddest.....when you get that old black machine out with that ground pounding thunder warming up and head down the road you are there again.....amen...
