This 1971 Chevrolet Nova SS Tribute is a stunning blend of classic American muscle-car styling and serious modern performance upgrades. Sporting fresh Mango Tango Pearl paint with distinctive SS badging, this Nova not only looks fast—it genuinely delivers, thanks to its extensively built 355ci V8 pushing out an impressive 485 horsepower. Located in Lebanon, Oregon, this fully documented build includes comprehensive receipts and a detailed photographic history, ensuring total transparency in its restoration and customization.
Finished in eye-catching Mango Tango Pearl, the Nova's recent repaint accentuates its aggressive lines and classic SS styling cues. SS badging complements the period-correct appearance, while 15-inch A.R. Outlaw II aluminum wheels wrapped in new Cooper radial tires enhance the stance and grip. A set of original-style Chevy Rally Sport wheels is also included, along with an extra painted stock hood, allowing versatility for both street and show. Inside, the black interior retains a classic muscle-car vibe with thoughtful upgrades. A Hurst pistol-grip shifter with line lock takes center stage, emphasizing the car's performance heritage. Modern additions include a Kenwood audio player paired with a custom speaker setup, offering contemporary convenience within a vintage environment.
The heart of this build is a powerful 355ci V8 engine featuring a robust 4-bolt main block. Performance upgrades include an Edelbrock single-plane high-rise intake manifold, Keith Black forged domed pistons with an 11:1 compression ratio, a Comp-Cam Thumpr camshaft, 2.02 Camelback heads, and a brand-new 650 CFM Brawler street carburetor. Ignition enhancements include an MSD H.E.I. distributor, DUI 50,000V coil, MSD AL-6 ignition box, and 8mm Super Comp plug wires, capped by vintage gold Moroso valve covers and air cleaner. Power is transferred via a TH350 B&M automatic transmission equipped with a 3800 B&M stall converter, while handling is significantly improved through an Art Morrison coil-over shocks and ladder bar suspension setup, complemented by a sub-frame connector system. The rear axle features a 3.73 gear ratio, and stopping power comes from a power disc brake setup with a hydro-boost system. An aggressive dual Flowmaster Super 44 crossover exhaust ensures the Nova sounds as powerful as it performs.

The Chevrolet Nova II, or Chevy II line-up was created in 1962, as a compact automobile. Chevy knew that not everyone wanted full-size or midsize cars, and as a result, the the Nova sold really well throughout its five generations of existence. Naturally, first-generation Novas, like this 1963 Chevrolet Nova II 4-Door Sedan from Liberty, New Jersey, are great collector cars. They’re slowly creeping up in value as more and more eager classic car collectors shift their attention towards the more workmanlike American cars from the Sixties and Seventies. After all, it’s entirely possible that this 75,000-mile sedan was a stalwart family car back in its day, with its 238ci V8 and Powerglide automatic transmission. Now, it makes for a fine catch if you’re classic car fishing.
Chevrolet’s Chevy II or Nova was a compact car that was made between 1961 and 1988. It aimed to offer a more maneuverable package for those who didn’t want a large automobile, but kept some performance credentials via hot variants. Yes, you could have your Nova with a V8 if you desired. Today’s 1963 Chevrolet Nova Pro Touring Restomod is a nice restomod that’s been extensively built. Residing in Pacifica, California, this 2,394-mile machine packs a 5.3-liter LS V8, a custom Ridetech chassis, a Tremec 5-speed manual box and many more things. Let us tell you more about this truly one of a kind build, and if you’d like to own it, you know who to call.
The Chevy II or Chevrolet Nova was a compact, and later subcompact car made by General Motors between 1961 and 1988. It offered a more manageable and maneuverable choice as opposed to the massive full-size cars that were available, as well as the still sizable midsize contenders. It’s no surprise that not everyone wanted a land yacht, after all. Those living in smaller towns or rapidly developing urban centers preferred cars that were easier to move around in. However, that didn’t stop the Nova from gaining some of the sportiness that its bigger brethren possessed. One such example of a sporting Nova was the Yenko Nova. These were Novas that received special attention by renowned racer and tuner Don Yenko. These cars saw big blocks shoe-horned into their compact engine bays, beefed up suspension to handle the extra weight (and performance of course) and some more improvements to help them challenge (and often triumph over) the muscle and pony cars that ruled the streets. Original Yenko Novas are scant, with just 37 units reportedly produced. Thankfully, replicas like this 1972 Chevrolet Nova Yenko Tribute can give you a slice of that Yenko Nova experience. This particular car comes from Illinois with a mere 11,512 miles on the clock. Oh, and it’s got a Big Block, naturally.
This 1973 Chevrolet C20 Cheyenne pickup blends classic square-body truck styling with the unmistakable power of a big-block V8. Showing 34,983 miles, this example presents as a well-preserved driver with tasteful performance upgrades. Finished in black with a two-tone interior, the truck carries the desirable Cheyenne trim and the robust 3/4-ton C20 platform. Equipped with a 454 cubic-inch V8 and upgraded induction components, it offers the rugged capability and unmistakable presence that made Chevrolet’s early square-body trucks some of the most respected pickups of their era.
This 1974 Chevrolet Corvette Coupe, in all its orange glory, comes from an era of resilience. The C3 or third-gen ‘Vette is the longest-running of them all, with a fourteen-year production run between 1968 and 1982. Cars like this one are historically significant because they weathered the most dreaded time in American auto history; the Malaise Era. Even during those times, the Corvette was still the fastest American car available. Now, you can see why, when you take a closer look at this 24,000-mile machine from Island Lake, Illinois. It’s a survivor, a stunning looker, and above all, never compromised on engines by always having a V8 beneath the hood. So why not buy this beautiful boulevard cruiser and stick it to today’s soulless EVs?
Eight generations of Corvette are available right now, and we at Exotic Car Trader have shifted examples from all eight of them. Today’s 2010 Chevrolet Corvette 2LT Convertible comes from the sixth generation, called the C6. It’s a fine, V8-powered drop-top from Cabot, Arkansas and comes with just 8,795 miles on the clock. Plus, it’s got the owners manual included with the sale, as well as both keys. Oh, and did we say it’s rear wheel drive and packing a stick shift? Yup, this might as well be driving nirvana, wrapped up in a white package and containing red leather on the inside.
One of the shortest-lived nameplates in Buick history has got to be the Invicta. In fact, this full-size offering packed in two generations within just five years. The first generation ran for 1959 and 1960, while the second was made from 1961 to 1963. Given the car’s short production run, it’s no surprise that the market isn’t awash with examples. Thankfully, we have this 53,667-mile 1959 Buick Invicta for sale today. With its 401ci V8 and automatic gearbox, this Miami-based classic is the perfect choice for someone seeking an unconventional automobile to cherish, and of course, drive.

Cadillac may be best known for their massively opulent land yachts that really pushed the boundaries of full-size cars, but did you know that they had smaller options? In fact, they still do. Between 1976 and 2004, their midsize luxury car was the Seville. Named after a Spanish province renowned for art and architecture, today’s 1985 Cadillac Seville comes from the second generation of the nameplate. It’s got only 13,272 miles on its 4.1-liter throttle body injected V8, and features a four-speed automatic transmission. Interestingly, the car is front-wheel drive, as was typical back in the day. If you’d like to acquire this rather interesting piece of Eighties Americana, it’s currently up for grabs in Fountain Inn, South Carolina.
