The Chevrolet Nova was initially known as a compact economy car. But thanks to its light weight and impressive performance (when spec’d with a V8), the Nova soon became notorious in the hot-rodding community. Today, the Chevy II/Nova has become an icon in the tuning fraternity thanks to an abundance of aftermarket parts and a wealth of knowledge. It seems the sky is the limit for some of these impressive builds, and the car featured here is no exception. This 1969 Chevrolet Nova features an impressive spec list that includes a bored-out V8 engine with high-compression pistons, a swapped manual transmission, and a rather eye-catching exterior, complete with unique graphics.
Exterior and Interior
One look at this 1969 Chevrolet Nova, and you know it means business, thanks to its traditional drag-car stance. The red paintwork is complemented by yellow and white stripes on the lower rear, while a custom painted chequered flag dominates the rear half of the body. To necessitate the installation of the wide-profile Hoosier rear tires, the car has been tubbed. The drag-car stance is accentuated by smaller front tires and a large power bulge for the hood. Inside, you’ll find a roll cage for safety and a black interior, complete with bucket seats. For ease of use, the driver’s seat features electric adjustment, while the passenger side is manual. In the interests of weight saving, there is no rear seat. You’ll find an AutoMeter RPM gauge mounted near the shifter, while ahead of the driver you’ll find two gauges from Summit Racing monitoring oil pressure and water temperature.
