1967 Chevrolet Nova II Custom

Chevrolet Nova 1967 Description

This 1967 Chevy Nova is a sinister looking street machine that has just over 200 miles since the build was completed. It was a feature car in the Super Chevy "Nova Annual" edition which highlighted its awesome performance and quality build characteristics.

The motor is a wicked 406 small block with a Gallies crank, owards Rods, RP pistons and a Comp Cam. Managing the fuel and air is a Barry Grant 850 Demon carb and providing a wicked spark is an MSD distributor and 6AL box. The motor exhales through a set of Sanderson exhaust manifolds and a custom-built 3-inch exhaust with Dynomax mufflers. Cooling down the motor is a trick Be Cool Radiator with Dual fans as well as a Be Cool oil cooler. The Chevy puts out nearly 500 HP and is very responsive. It's also a rocket out of the hole and a great car to cruise around town!

The body on the Nova is a wonderfully straight and was stripped down to bare metal before it received its new base/clear paint job. The paint has been freed from the bonds of orange peel via a thorough wet-sanding and then polished to perfection. The chrome is new and the trim is polished out and the original stainless fits as it should. The Chevy II has all OEM panels with the exception of the cowl hood and is has excellent panel fitment.

The transmission is a 700 R4 with 3 forward gears and an overdrive gear. It might seem tame, ut the 2,800 stall helps launch the car pretty aggressively. The rear end is a trick Ford 9" with Trac-Lock 3.50 gears, nd Strange 31 Spline axles. The grip off the line is just right and the car tracks nicely even while laying down the rubber.

The rear suspension consists of a Global West multi-spring set up with a 3" drop combined with calipers and rotors from Strange. The front suspension is a Fat Man independent front suspension. With the Fat Man set up, he Nova gained disc brakes, ower rack and pinion and an adjustable coil over setup that handles so much better than the factory Nova stuff ever did.

If you are looking for a mean cruiser that has the ability to get downright wicked, his little Nova is big on power and handles like a charm.
