The Chevrolet Nova, or Chevy II as it was also known, was the Bowtie's small car offering. Yes, amidst all the land yachts and pumped-up muscle cars, there existed buyers who still wanted something more compact. That didn't mean that buyers had to give up on large engines, though. On the contrary, the Nova, which ran between 1962 and 1979, with a brief re-appearance from 1985 to 1988, was offered with V8 power if buyers desired such. This particular 1971 Chevrolet Nova has received a comprehensive restoration, plus a new heart that's traveled less than 5,000 miles. Hence, it's a turn-key classic car that can burn rubber at your command. Will you add it to your garage, drive it, enjoy it, and cherish it for future generations? If you're willing to do all these things, give us a call.
Exterior and Interior
This third-generation 1971 Chevrolet Nova wears a new coat of blue paint and a contrasting black hardtop roof. This pseudo-convertible look was in vogue during the Sixties through the Eighties. We're told that the car has received a new windshield for a clearer look ahead and new tires so you can drive it hard and far without worries. The car also bears SS badges, and has an attractive set of aftermarket wheels. The passenger cabin of this 1971 Chevrolet Nova is a four-seat affair in black leather. Mostly a veritable time capsule, we note some added gauges to monitor the new engine's performance and health and a sporty aftermarket three-spoke steering wheel. A plaque on the door sill tells us that this car's body was built by Fisher. This was common in those days when a separate company would build bodies for automakers - a practice known as coachbuilding. As for the trunk, it could use a new carpet but it is in decent condition for the car's age.
Engine
This 1971 Chevrolet Nova has received a potent 383ci Stroker V8, endowing it with plenty of horsepower and torque.

The rear wheels are driven via a 4-speed manual transmission and a 12-bolt rear end, making this firmly a muscle car. Then, we're told that the car packs new wiring, a new fuel tank and pump, a new alternator and battery, new belts, a new water pump, radiator, and fan, as well as new brakes. It really is a turn-key classic that you can enjoy from the time you sign the papers.
