The Chevy Nova, or Chevy II as it was also known, was the Bowtie’s contender in the compact car space between 1962 and 1979. It was quite a departure from Chevy’s other offerings that included full-size and midsize cars, plus sports, muscle and pony cars. Nevertheless, the Nova was a best-seller throughout much of the Sixties, since it represented affordable motoring for the masses who didn’t want a land yacht of epic proportions and eye-watering price. Now, the Nova is a great classic car, as well as a fine restomod platform. This particular 1966 Chevrolet Nova SS Restomod is a great example of the latter category, as it’s undergone a full restoration and has just 400 miles on its stonking new motor.
Wearing a bright shade of yellow that looks just like Tweety Bird’s color, this 1966 Chevrolet Nova SS Restomod is a sight for sore eyes. The car’s mean stance and 14x15 chunky rear wheels immediately mark it out as something out of the ordinary. Then, you notice that monster motor poking out of the hood because it just couldn’t be contained within the car’s engine compartment. Yes, this isn’t a car for those who shun attention; on the contrary, it’s a car that will steal the limelight at any car meet or show. The interior of this 1966 Chevrolet Nova SS Restomod is similarly attractive, with a black and yellow theme going on. You’ve got leather-upholstered low-back seats, floormats with the Chevy emblem, and a push-button radio in the center console. There are also some auxiliary gauges, plus a tachometer just to the right hand side of the linear-style speedometer. A sporty steering wheel, and a chrome-topped gear shift knob connected to a B&M shifter top off the interior highlights of this car – but those aren’t what most potential buyers will be interested in…
Now, if you’re looking at this 1966 Chevrolet Nova SS Restomod, you’d definitely want to know more about that monster motor. We’ve saved the best for last, as it’s a truly amazing 468ci big-block V8 with twin Holley carbs, an 8.5 to 1 compression ratio, and Bowtie aluminum heads. If that’s not enough, the engine’s got a blower strapped to it for even more power. Power goes to the rear wheels through a 700R4 automatic gearbox and a 10-bolt Chevy rear end. Then, there’s coilover shocks and a ladder bar rear suspension set-up. So strap in, because it’s gonna be one helluva ride.

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. Choosing your weapon to power down a dead straight is open to interpretation; sure, you could power down in a full-electric motor with the air conditioning on, but where is the fun in that? Present today is a machine that can power down a drag strip with style and raised eyebrows, and takes shape with this 1969 Chevrolet Nova. 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 Chevy El Camino showed the world in 1959 that a pickup truck didn’t have to be a body-on-frame machine with stodgy styling and uncomfortable riding dynamics. Instead, Chevy created a segment called the Coupe Utility, which was basically a seamless integration of cab, chassis and cargo area into one element. This led to a sportier, lower-riding and more comfortable vehicle that could still carry a decent payload in its cargo bed. After all, many buyers of such vehicles didn’t need heavy load-carrying per se, rather they wanted space. The El Camino also gained a reputation in the muscle car class, since it was available with some truly awesome V8s under the hood. Here, we have a 1960 Chevrolet El Camino that’s received a 383 Stroker under the hood, paired with a 3-speed automatic gearbox and a B&M shifter. With just 23,000 miles on its belt, this machine of multiple personas awaits its new owner in Dana Point, California.
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.
Chevy’s second-generation or C2 Corvette has got to be the one with the shortest production run! It was made between 1963 and 1967, and just under 118,000 units were produced during this time. However, the C2 brought us many Corvette features such as pop-up headlamps, only V8s under the hood, and the Sting Ray badge. That’s why getting your hands on a C2 is a smart idea, albeit not one of the easiest. Happily, we have this 1964 Chevrolet Corvette Sting Ray Convertible for sale from Newtown, Pennsylvania. The car has just 5,764 miles on it and looks fabulous!
Ford’s Torino is a midsize car that was sold between 1968 and 1976. It also dabbled in the muscle car segment, with a prime example being this first-generation 1969 Ford Torino Cobra Jet. For buyers who wanted something tamer, there was a host of straight six or V8 powerplants, but the ultimate was the massive 428ci Cobra Jet V8. That’s what this Thousand Palms-based car offers, along with a Marti Report and just 21,000 miles on the clock. In fact, 1969 Cobras like this one are quite desirable due to their rarity since many Torino’s didn’t survive due to a variety of reasons. Perhaps they weren’t quite seen as preservation candidates way back then. Now, a car like this one isn’t a common occurrence, so if you wish to own this Cobra, contact us right now.
