Background Story of this 1966 Chevrolet Nova

Overview of 1966 Chevrolet Nova For Sale by Owner

Dive into the world of high-performance restomods with this 1966 Chevrolet Nova – a true quarter-mile menace. The Chevy Nova, known for its no-nonsense compact design, has undergone a radical transformation into a quarter-mile dominator. This vibrant red beast on Weld wheels and drag-spec tires hints at its true purpose – to conquer the drag strip with flair.

Exterior and Interior

The exterior of this Nova retains classic cues, featuring chrome accents and original-style head and tail lamps. However, the bright red paint job and drag-ready stance make it clear that this Nova means business. The custom interior is designed for both comfort and performance, boasting Dakota Digital gauges, a tilt steering wheel, a Proline racing shifter, and a custom console with cup holders. While the air conditioning is currently removed, it's included in the sale for those seeking added comfort. The rear seats remain, allowing you to share the exhilarating experience with two passengers, although trunk space is limited due to a massive fuel tank.

Engine

Under the hood lies a monstrous 540ci V8 engine, guaranteeing attention and tire-smoking performance. With a 2-speed Raceglide automatic transmission driving the rear wheels, this Nova is purpose-built for drag racing rather than subdued highway cruising. Running on 110-octane fuel, the engine boasts electronic exhaust cut-outs, a custom 4-inch exhaust, Brodix BB3 heads, an Edelbrock Victor 2 high-rise intake, and a Holley 1050 CFM Dominator Flanged 4-Barrel Carburetor, delivering a staggering 800HP to the rear wheels. Disc brakes on all four wheels ensure effective stopping, while a manual rack and pinion steering unit provides control.
