Factory-documented and featuring its believed original 350 V8 powerplant, this 1974 Chevrolet Nova comes finished in Dark Green Metallic with silver painted racing stripes that enhance the conservative GM styling. Chevrolet built these compact models to offer an ideal balance of utility and performance during the oil crisis era. The modest dimensions and clean lines give way to subtle upgrades including 15" wheels and 215/75R15 Hankook tires for improved road contact. Black painted grille .....
and strategic fog light placement update the front fascia without detracting from the factory appearance. Every visual element - from the proportioned bumpers to the clean greenhouse - remains faithful to GM's original intention.
Black vinyl covers the spacious bench seat that comfortably fits three adults across the cabin. Original-style door panels maintain the factory design ethos, while the dash presents gauges in a straightforward layout for quick information access. A wrapped steering wheel adds extra comfort during long drives down the highway. Column shifting allows for open floor space and gives additional room for occupants. The Kenwood AM/FM/Cassette player offers improved audio quality compared to the factory radio, making for a great companion during extended trips, and the factory A/C is all there, although it needs servicing before it will blow cold again. Factory construction and thoughtful upgrades blend perfectly in this driver-focused environment.
A 350 cubic inch V8 Chevrolet small block with the correct casting number and CMA suffix code (although no VIN stamp for absolute certainty) powers this Nova down the road. The combination of an Edelbrock intake manifold and four-barrel carburetor allows for excellent throttle response and acceleration. The TH350 automatic transmission manages gear changes effectively through all three speeds. Power transfers through a sturdy 10-bolt rear axle for proper traction in various conditions. Front power disc brakes provide strong stopping when needed. Upgraded dual FlowMaster exhaust with an H-pipe configuration gives this Nova the signature V8 sound that muscle car fans appreciate without being overly loud.
