Is it the slick custom paint or the new performance-built V8 that makes you want this 1972 Chevrolet Nova coupe? We bet it's both of those features available at such an affordable price that will have you racing down here to take home this classic.Yes, the paint is truly as amazing as it looks in the pictures. The royal blue has a super shiny metallic element that helps it compete with the luster that comes from the silver. In the sunlight this is an unbeatable color combo, and that's why even the bumpers are painted to match. Plus, the way the two-tone separates across the body, it perfectly highlights the Coke bottle curves of the third generation Nova. There's even a pinstripe as a dividing line for those who love the details. There are also plenty of sporty and aggressive elements on this coupe, including the fiberglass hood, full-length billet grille, and 17-inch ARE torque thrust style wheels. But beyond all this custom work are the fundamentals of a classic with good body panels that line up nicely and doors that shut with authority. The interior is a nice and clean reminder that this Nova wants to get down to business. The blue color is factory-correct, and it benefits from new carpet, headliner, and comfortable cloth bench seats. There's plenty of room for family and friends, but this is obviously a car built for the driver. You can see it instantly with the Grant sports steering wheel with a large aftermarket tach mounted on the steering column. To your left are auxiliary gauges, and to your right is a B&M ratchet shifter. So all of this tells you there's something special in the engine bay even before you turn the key and hear the burly exhaust note.Under the hood is a ZZ4 350 cubic-inch V8 crate motor. It provides some serious power straight from GM thanks to performance upgrades such as a forged steel crankshaft, hypereutectic pistons, aluminum cylinder heads, and hydraulic roller camshaft and lifters. This one also has also been treated to an Edelbrock four-barrel carburetor and performance intake. The total package delivers the kind of dominating performance you dream about in a lightweight muscle car like this Nova. Plus, the long-tube headers and dual exhaust announce your superiority to the world. This performance package is backed up by power steering and a stout TH350 three-speed automatic transmission (so you can even take full advantage of the aforementioned tach/ratchet shifter combo.) It all sits on BF Goodrich ZR-rated gForce tires. These give superior grip, and their staggered size help add to the aggressive appearance.Beautifully built and insanely fast, this cool Nova gives you the kind of muscle car presence we all love at an exceptional price. So we know this one won't be staying with us very long. Call today!!!
