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.
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.
The star of the show is found under the hood. This 1969 Chevrolet Nova features a 454ci V8 bored out to a capacity of 461ci. The built engine with 200 miles on it, as reported by the owner, features high-compression 12:1 pistons, while power is sent to the rear wheels via a 1969 model year four-speed manual transmission. The Nova also features four-link rear suspension, with a Ford nine-inch rear end.

Today’s 1969 Chevrolet Nova Restomod isn’t your typical third-generation Chevy Nova. No, this blue beast comes with a massive 502ci Ram Air-packing V8 with an automatic transmission for ease of driving. Up for grabs in Pueblo, Colorado, this is a fine example of what can be done when you stuff a massive V8 into a compact car. Mind you, that’s precisely what Chevy did with the Nova back then, albeit with engines that weren’t quite as madcap as this one. So if you’d like to own a restomod that’s truly a head-turner and a thrill to drive, this 60,000-mile car is ready for you.
Chevy’s Nova was a compact car that was made between 1961 and 1979. During the third generation, the Nova SS or Super Sport was offered, as a flyweight with real bite. It saw a V8 packed into its diminutive engine bay, as well as a host of external, internal and mechanical upgrades. This made it one of the smallest muscle cars available in North America. Original SS models aren’t that easy to come by, but builds like this 1970 Chevrolet Nova SS Tribute are rather more attainable. This particular car wears a Plum Crazy Purple paint job, comes with the 350ci High Performance V8 under the hood, and carries you inside a black interior. It’s also got just under 2,200 miles on the clock, and is available in Merritt Island, Florida.
One of Chevy’s most popular compacts of the Sixties and Seventies, cars like this 1972 Chevrolet Nova Restomod ruled the roost of sporty small cars. They were available in frugal six-cylinder form, or with small-block V8s under the hood. Today’s car, however, is a build like no other. It rocks a mammoth 454ci V8 under the hood, driving the rear wheels through a TH-350 automatic gearbox. A 2.5-inch aftermarket exhaust ensures that everyone hears the rumble of the big V8 as you streak by in a flash of burnt orange, riding upon REV 109 classic Magnum 15-inch wheels. You’ll even get dual four-point harnesses which are currently not installed, in case you want to take this Nova to a track or strip.
One of Chevy’s main pillars of the Sixties and Seventies, the Chevelle dominated the midsize segment with ease. It was one of the Bowtie’s most successful models during its 1963 to 1977 production run, and came in many body forms. Of course, petrolheads flocked towards the SS or Super Sport variant which brought many cosmetic as well as performance upgrades to the car. Now, we’ve got a finely restored 1967 Chevrolet Chevelle SS for grabs in Visalia, California. Sporting a black exterior and a black interior, this machine rocks a fearsome 427ci V8 under the hood, a set of black Ridler alloy wheels, and more. Also included in the sale is a Vintage Air heating and air conditioning system that’s currently not installed.
This clean white 1995 Chevrolet Corvette is your ticket to Nineties American Automotive Nirvana. Coming from the C4 or fourth generation of America’s favorite sports car, it showcases the crisp-edged design that made it so alluring a couple of decades ago. This car is of the targa top variant and comes with a tan interior loaded with some pretty neat creature comforts. It’s also got a pretty punchy 5.7-liter V8 hooked up to an easy-driving automatic transmission for the ultimate cruiser experience. What’s not to like, then, about this reported 45,000-mile car from Duluth, Minnesota? Get in touch ASAP.
Tired of today’s appliances on wheels? May we offer this Garnet Red 1969 Chevrolet Chevelle Malibu for your well-being and overall enrichment of quality of life? It’s a stalwart American classic from the famous Chevy Chevelle family, and comes with just 8,000 miles on the clock after some refreshment work. With its nice black interior and Pioneer head unit upgrade, it’s a lovely car to drive regularly but the real fun factor lies beneath the hood, ready for a flex of your right foot. Yes, there’s a good American V8 down there, displacing all of 454 cubic inches and endowed with some nice goodies to help it make more than the reportedly approximately 400 horsepower that factory examples came with. If you’re tempted, this car is up for grabs in Lubbock.

The 1966 Ford Mustang Convertible is one of the most celebrated icons of the American pony car era, offering a perfect blend of style, performance, and open-top enjoyment. As one of the models that helped define Ford’s early success with the Mustang, the 1966 model year continued to refine the formula with subtle styling updates and strong engine options like the 289 V8.
