When Chevrolet created the Chevy II in 1962, it was all done under strict time constraints with night and day work. That is what made the Chevy II one of the fastest new-car development programs in GM history. The Nova designation was supposed to be the top-of-the-line option for the Chevy II until it replaced the Chevy II in 1969. The Chevrolet Chevy II/ Nova was produced in six generations from 1962 through 1979, and 1985 through 1988. Our subject car is from the much-south after third generation of Chevy Nova, this 1972 Chevy Nova, is a special kind of a Nova, as it comes with some tasty upgrades, a low mileage of 17 miles after the build and available to be seen in the Big Apple.
This 1972 Chevy Nova is graced with a silver exterior which was repainted during the restoration. The Nova’s shoes are a set of E-T Classic V 5-spoke wheels, with brand new Goodyear rubber wrapped around them. Taillights and headlights have been upgraded to modern times with new LED units. The interior of this car is done in a black finish, which was also redone during the restoration. Precise maneuvering is translated to the wheels through the Grant GT 4-spoke steering wheel and power steering. The dash, gauge and radio are original, including the Sunpro RPM gauge behind the steering wheel. the front seats are a pair of Procar by SCAT bucket seats which will be welcome when you floor the gas, given what lurks under the hood!
Originally the 1972 Chevy Nova had a host of engine options ranging from 2.5L to 6.6L, in I4, I6 or V8 option, coupled with 2, 3, and 4-speed manual or automatic transmission. This restored and engine swapped Chevy Nova, sports a 632 ci (10.3L) V8 crate motor from Summit Racing, to keep this monstrosity in check the Nova is installed with a Turbo 400 TCI automatic transmission also from Summit Racing, with a reported total power output estimation of 819hp by Summit Racing. Stopping power is courtesy of all-around power disc brakes with a Wilwood brake system. Although this car has some serious numbers behind it, it is reportedly not set up for racing and as such no roll cage was installed.
