Current Owner Reports It was built 12 years and the engine was overhauled and refreshed 6 years ago. Fastest Quarter mile it did was 9.80 at 144 MPH.
With a deadline of just 18 months, then Chevy designer Clare MacKichan and his team had no time for trial and error. The goal was to build a compact, affordable, high-selling car. MacKichan hit the nail on the head with the introduction of the Chevrolet Nova in 1962, making it one of the fastest-produced vehicles in GM's history. Of course, like all vehicles, the Nova evolved with each generation, making itself a real competitor in the muscle car segment with the third generation as featured here. The third-gen Nova is a favorite among those who like the adrenaline rush of the drag strip, and if you are one of them, you might already notice that this is exactly what said vehicle has been built for.
The third-generation Chevy Nova had a distinctive exterior design that was more aerodynamic and sportier than its predecessors. The car featured a long hood, short deck, and a fastback-style roofline that sloped down to a short rear deck, the tell-tale features of a muscle car at the time. This specific 1972 Chevrolet Nova can instantly be identified as a track-focused car, if not by the 671-blower peeking out of the hood, then by the reportedly new disproportionate tire setup and rear spoiler. The car is also reportedly equipped with disk brakes upfront while maintaining drums for the rear. Looking into the interior, it becomes very much more apparent that the previous owner of this Nova wasn't too keen on preserving its originality. Rather, what he saw fit was a racing roll cage protecting a set of bucket seats and a dash full of gauges to constantly keep feeding you information because that's what really matters when you're trying to complete a quarter mile unreasonably fast.
Not too much about the engine of this 1973 Chevrolet Nova has been revealed other than the fact that it is a 454 Big Block V8 engine with a new 671 blower and blower gasket that is mated to a three-speed standard manual transmission to produce 800hp.
Chevy’s stalwart compact offering of the Sixties and Seventies, the Nova provided solid motoring to the mainstream segment, in a manageable and maneuverable package. It also gave you the choice of an economical four-cylinder powerplant, or a brawny V8 under the hood. Not many compact cars did that, granting the Nova (also called the Chevy II) a rather diverse persona. You could have two Novas side by side – one could be a frugal four-cylinder sedan or station wagon while the other could be a V8-toting coupe. Today’s 1967 Chevrolet Nova II is a two-door coupe and somewhat of a restomod as well. This 383-packing machine has got under 31,000 miles on its odometer and hails from Casper, Wyoming.
The Chevy Nova or Chevy II was made between 1961 and 1979, as a compact car for the North American market. Yes, in a world of muscle cars, pony cars and luxurious land yachts, the compact car was still carving out a name for itself. After all, not every family wanted or could afford the flashier, larger, sportier offerings. So, cars like the Nova offered mobility to countless individuals and families who would otherwise have to take the bus! That means a Nova as a classic car is a worthy choice to make. Today, we have a 1970 Chevrolet Nova for sale from Nevada with a 350ci under the hood, a TH400 to drive the wheels, a reupholstered interior and some nice customizations. You should seriously consider it if you’re in the market for a drivable classic.
The drag strip is where battles are settled, it's where man and machine are hyper-focused on closing down a quarter mile in the quickest time possible. Choosing your weapon to power down a dead straight is open to interpretation; sure, you could power down in a full-electric motor with the air conditioning on, but where is the fun in that? Present today is a machine that can power down a drag strip with style and raised eyebrows, and takes shape with this 1969 Chevrolet Nova. With a reported 72,411 miles on its clock, this unique build is your weekend plans on full throttle and wide smiles every time you're behind the wheel.
This 2022 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray Coupe 3LT pays direct homage to one of the most successful chapters in Corvette racing history: the C8.R’s dominance in IMSA GTLM competition. The C8.R marked a turning point for Corvette Racing, becoming the first mid-engine Corvette to compete at the highest levels of endurance racing and capturing the IMSA GTLM Championship in its debut era. This special edition translates that motorsport achievement into a road-going package, blending race-inspired visual cues with the full technological and mechanical advancement of the C8 platform. More than a cosmetic tribute, this configuration represents Chevrolet’s celebration of the Corvette’s transition from front-engine tradition to mid-engine modernity—an inflection point in the model’s 70-year legacy.
Generally, off-road enthusiasts appreciate the classic SUVs' appearance. The classic square-body design, along with robust mechanicals for off-roading, transports you back to simpler times. The 1987 Chevrolet K5 Blazer is one of the well-known classic off-roaders out there. What if we tell you that now you can enjoy the vintage beauty of it with a blend of comprehensive modern off-road capabilities? What we have here is a 1987 Chevrolet K5 Blazer Silverado Restomod with a reported 3,920 miles on its clock and an impressive list of advanced apparatus.
Chevy’s C6 or sixth-generation Corvette was sold between 2004 and 2013. Designed by Tom Peters, the C6 was a comprehensive redesign of America’s favorite sports car. Out went pop-up headlamps, primarily due to tightened pedestrian safety regulations that made this iconic feature a nightmare to engineer. But that’s probably the only negative thing about the C6. Everything else is enduringly positive, from the increased passenger cabin space despite the shorter overall length of the car, the new and more potent V8 under the hood, the improved handling and dynamics, plus more good things. Chevy also brought out the Z06 as the successor to the C5’s ZR1 high-performance derivative. The Z06 came with a massive 427ci small-block under the hood plus several performance improvements. Today, we have a rather special variant, in the form of this 2008 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 Wil Cooksey Limited Edition #32. Up for sale in Overland Park, Kansas, this car has done under 10,000 miles and comes with Wil Cooksey’s signature. Just 505 examples of this special edition were ever produced, making it quite rare. Who is Wil Cooksey? A legendary Corvette plant head who worked his way to the top and left quite a mark on the Corvette for years after his retirement in 2008.
Muscle cars are often regarded as aggressive machinery that makes their entrance with a whole lot of dramatic antics. While that statement is relevant, there is another side to muscle cars - their classic appeal is something that is overlooked when taking into account the performance they have to offer. Present today is this 1970 Ford Mustang Convertible. It's a muscle car in every right and showcases the tame side of muscle car ownership. Better yet, this lovely example has just a reported under 36,000 miles on its clock.
This 1966 Chevrolet Corvette Sting Ray is a comprehensively refreshed C2 example that blends classic mid-1960s design with a documented, enthusiast-focused mechanical restoration. Powered by a rebuilt 350ci naturally aspirated V8 and paired with a fully overhauled 4-speed manual transmission, the car emphasizes reliability, drivability, and mechanical integrity rather than strict numbers-matching originality. The vehicle benefits from a full mechanical restoration documented by MasterWorks Automotive Services, exceeding $13,000, providing confidence in the quality and thoroughness of the work performed.
The classic American muscle car transports you back to the days of yore like no other. Sometimes, their unique silhouette that blends vintage charm and sportiness against an orange sunset is all you need to realize “life isn’t so bad after all.” What if we tell you that you can now take one of those legends home without breaking the bank? The 1971 Chevrolet Chevelle Restomod marked a turning point in the era due to evolving industry regulations. They introduced a budget-friendly option named "Heavy Chevy" offering the aggressive look of a muscle car without the high cost and insurance premiums. This staggering example of the 1971 Chevrolet Chevelle features the "Heavy Chevy" package and currently has only under 800 miles on its odometer.
