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.
The Chevrolet Nova has long been a favorite among muscle car enthusiasts thanks to its lightweight body and excellent potential for high-performance builds. This 1972 Chevrolet Nova takes that formula to another level with a heavily upgraded drivetrain and numerous performance enhancements throughout. Showing under 77,000 miles, this Nova is powered by a formidable 454ci V8 paired with a TH350 automatic transmission, delivering the kind of torque and acceleration that made big-block muscle cars legendary. Finished in striking Burnt Orange over a black interior, the car blends classic American muscle styling with a thoughtfully assembled list of aftermarket upgrades aimed at improving power, reliability, and drivability.
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.
