The Chevrolet Nova or Chevy II as it was sometimes referred to as was a compact and later subcompact car built by the Bowtie, in response to those who wanted something a bit smaller and more maneuverable. Five generations were made, and in true American style, one could get anything from a four-banger to a V8 beneath the hood. Today’s 1974 Chevrolet Nova is a third generation variant that’s been tastefully resto-modded to make it something of a street rod. Well, it still looks quite conventional but isn’t quite sleeper-esque either. Take a closer look at this Melbourne, Iowa-based car if you’re on the hunt for something classic and yet potent.

On the face of it, this 1974 Chevrolet Nova doesn’t seem to be upgraded much. The car wears a silver suit and retains much of its classic cues, including chromed bumpers, Nova SS decals and rides on a set of mag wheels with suitably sized Mastercraft Avenger G/T tires. It’s also got some gold and red striping on the hood for a sporty vibe. A closer look reveals side-exit exhaust pipes. If you’re checking out this car at night, you’ll also see its underglow lights. But there’s nothing truly outrageous or unconventional about this car, making it great for unobtrusively slipping about town when you just want to get about your day. The interior of this 1974 Chevrolet Nova features black leather-upholstered seating for up to four adults, with bucket seats at the front. It’s largely stock, apart from an aftermarket tachometer mounted ahead of the speedometer. We also see that the car was formerly an automatic transmission-equipped one by the shift position indicators on the speedometer.

Packing a 400ci V8, this 1974 Chevrolet Nova is a beast to drive. The old automatic transmission has been replaced by a 4-speed Muncie manual gearbox and of course, the car is rear-wheel drive. The engine has been cammed and given a big-block radiator for better cooling. You’ve also got Vortec heads and a high-rise Edelbrock carburetor. There are new distributor wires too. There’s big block front springs, while the rear enjoys air bag suspension.




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.



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 1961 Chevrolet Impala is one of the most recognizable early-60s American coupes, known for its sweeping side trim, quad headlights, and jet-age design language. This example has been transformed into an LS-swapped restomod while retaining much of its original character inside and out. Finished in green with a white interior, the car features a recently installed LS1 V8 with approximately 94,601 miles on the engine. The firewall has been painted in candy apple red, highlighting the custom drivetrain installation, though the exterior paintwork remains unfinished and the seller has noted a quarter panel issue pending further documentation. Sitting on 22-inch wheels, this Impala blends classic styling with modern performance, presenting as a partially completed project with strong mechanical foundations.



The 2023 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray Coupe continues the C8’s mid-engine revolution, delivering exotic-level performance at a fraction of the price of its European rivals. Finished in Black over Jet Black and equipped with the desirable Performance Exhaust and Carbon Flash accents, this example balances stealth styling with aggressive presence. With 46,136 miles on the odometer, it has been driven and enjoyed as intended while retaining the sharp looks and everyday usability that make the C8 such a compelling platform. The 1LT trim focuses on pure driving performance, pairing the naturally aspirated LT2 V8 with a lightning-fast dual-clutch transmission in a chassis that redefined the Corvette formula.



The 1967 Chevrolet Chevelle SS represents one of the most iconic years of the muscle car era, and this example takes that legendary foundation and elevates it into full restomod territory. Finished in Bolero Red with a black vinyl top and black bucket seat interior, this Chevelle retains its unmistakable Super Sport presence while benefiting from serious mechanical upgrades. Showing 51,859 miles on the odometer, it blends classic styling with modern drivability thanks to a 502ci big block, overdrive transmission, upgraded suspension, four-wheel disc brakes, and a high-end audio system. It delivers the look and nostalgia of a true ’67 SS with performance and reliability that far exceed factory specifications.

Arguably the most popular Mercedes-Benz model in the United States during the Seventies and Eighties, The R107 era of their SL-Class grand tourer saw over 204,000 units find homes. This was during an 18-year production run that spanned 1971 to 1989. Impressive as the figure may be for a luxury car, it’s even more admirable when you consider that just over 300,000 were made in total!

Don’t worry about the 142,000 miles on the odometer, these cars are built to go the distance if maintained well.



The 80s brought about a massive change in the automotive world; it was a seismic shift in terms of customer taste and what manufacturers brought to the table. While the 70s were a nice era for the car in general, the 80s would transform into a whole lot of synth and digital. The “Z” by Nissan was one of those machines that helped shape the 80s. Feast your eyes on the 80s in motion and get behind the wheel of this 1986 Nissan 300ZX we have today. Hailing from Palm Coast, Florida, and with just 79,035 miles on its clock, this '80s beauty is the perfect weekend drive and even serves as the foundation for a high-performance build.
