The Chevrolet Nova, also known as the Chevy II, was the Bowtie's compact car offering in the Sixties and Seventies. Created as a basic, no-nonsense automobile, the Nova ran through four generations from 1962 through 1979. A fifth generation was briefly produced between 1985 and 1988, but it was a rebadged Toyota. This particular example up for sale with us is a first-generation 1962 Chevrolet Nova that's received some significant upgrades by the current owner and has reportedly driven less than 500 miles since then. It's something of a sleeper, going by the upgraded powertrain we will tell you about shortly. So, why not add it to your collection?
This 1962 Chevrolet Nova bears a bright red paint job and sports a set of shiny five-spoke alloy wheels at each corner, wrapped in low-profile rubber. Behind the wheels can be observed disc brakes, which are one of many upgrades. Yet another upgrade that's visible at a glance is the dual exhaust at the rear. However, you'll be glad to know that the head and taillamps remain stock-looking and haven't been replaced with LED units. Ditto the chrome bumpers and badging, which remain stock. The black cabin of this 1962 Chevrolet Nova features leather-trimmed front and rear bench seats, a white cueball-style gear shifter, and a sporty three-spoke steering wheel. The stock instrument cluster is augmented by a Super Pro tachometer mounted directly in the driver's line of sight, while some auxiliary gauges have been added to the center console. There's also a push-button radio and switches for the car's ancillaries. Popping the trunk reveals a load space that's surprisingly accommodating for a compact car and appears in decent condition, too.
Now for the most significant upgrades to this 1962 Chevrolet Nova. Let's start with the engine, which is a 383 Stroker V8 that received a Master rebuilt kit in 2023. That's not all; we've got Holley headers, Roller rockers, Mallory ignition, polished intake and valve covers, stainless steel fuel lines, an electric fuel pump, a serpentine belt set-up, and an aluminum radiator. The transmission is a Turbo 350 unit that sends the upgraded power and torque to the rear wheels, while new brake lines help the upgraded four-wheel disc brakes do their thing. Handling has been enhanced via a coil-over suspension kit as well.
Chevy’s stalwart compact offering of the Sixties and Seventies, the Nova provided solid motoring to the mainstream segment, in a manageable and maneuverable package. It also gave you the choice of an economical four-cylinder powerplant, or a brawny V8 under the hood. Not many compact cars did that, granting the Nova (also called the Chevy II) a rather diverse persona. You could have two Novas side by side – one could be a frugal four-cylinder sedan or station wagon while the other could be a V8-toting coupe. Today’s 1967 Chevrolet Nova II is a two-door coupe and somewhat of a restomod as well. This 383-packing machine has got under 31,000 miles on its odometer and hails from Casper, Wyoming.
The Chevy Nova or Chevy II was made between 1961 and 1979, as a compact car for the North American market. Yes, in a world of muscle cars, pony cars and luxurious land yachts, the compact car was still carving out a name for itself. After all, not every family wanted or could afford the flashier, larger, sportier offerings. So, cars like the Nova offered mobility to countless individuals and families who would otherwise have to take the bus! That means a Nova as a classic car is a worthy choice to make. Today, we have a 1970 Chevrolet Nova for sale from Nevada with a 350ci under the hood, a TH400 to drive the wheels, a reupholstered interior and some nice customizations. You should seriously consider it if you’re in the market for a drivable classic.
The drag strip is where battles are settled, it's where man and machine are hyper-focused on closing down a quarter mile in the quickest time possible.

With a reported 72,411 miles on its clock, this unique build is your weekend plans on full throttle and wide smiles every time you're behind the wheel.
The Chevrolet SSR LS is a uniquely American performance pickup that blends retro-inspired styling with modern V8 power and convertible flair. Designed as a lifestyle vehicle rather than a traditional work truck, the SSR combines a retractable hardtop roof with a short-bed pickup configuration, offering open-air driving alongside utility-focused features. This LS-trim example emphasizes comfort, usability, and factory-installed accessories while retaining the bold character that made the SSR stand out in Chevrolet’s early-2000s lineup.
In 1953, Chevrolet introduced a car that would shake up the American sports car market. Yes, the Corvette was born that year. With breathtaking styling by Harley Earl, this iconic sports car initially came with a six-cylinder engine that was definitely unsuitable for such an amazing piece of automotive art and mechanical excellence. So, Chevy rectified the mistake by 1955 with the introduction of the Small-Block V8. Initially displacing 265ci, it grew to a 327ci unit by 1962. That’s what we have in this 1957 Chevrolet Corvette, with its 327ci V8 that packs dual quad carburetors and a reported output of 400 horseower. This Washington-based car also comes with its original interior, as well as original Corvette wheels. If you want a special classic Corvette that’s definitely going to be valuable for years to come, talk to us right now.
Made between 1968 and 1982, the third generation or C3 Corvette has got to be the longest-running era in Chevy’s Corvette. Over 500,000 units were sold during this time, making it one of the best ways to enter classic Corvette ownership. This fine specimen from 1974 Chevrolet Corvette is a worthy candidate if you’re interested. Hailing from Aurora, Colorado, it’s got just 3,000 miles on its rebuilt 350ci engine and automatic gearbox. Plus, there’s a whole list of new and replaced parts that have been installed, bringing this Corvette to a whole new level in terms of condition. You definitely won’t regret getting your hands on this car!
