This 1975 Chevrolet Nova is fresh off a thorough, frame-off restoration that's left it looking awesome and configured to handle everything from turning heads on the boulevard to high impact daily driving, where it's sure to draw more than its share of attention, as well. It's also running great and will come complete with build receipts as backup for the investment that's been made to transform it into the magnetic street machine it is now. A ruby red exterior, borrowed... from the Mercedes color palate, now sits in place of its original hue. Like the other work performed on this Chevy, the paint job shows a lot of craftsmanship and attention to detail, resulting in a deep, "wet" look that's consistent from front to back with even coloring under a very nice clearcoat. After this Nova was taken down to its frame and it came time to put the pieces back together, that work was done correctly as well, with flush body panels with even gaps between them serving as proof. Look a little closer at the cowl hood and you'll see that it's been shaped with precision and descends gracefully into the area surrounding it. The smaller details have also been looked after admirably, and you'll find clean trim and good rubber surrounding the windows and clear, fresh-looking glass on all four sides. The badging normally found on the front fenders and rear end has been deleted, a nice touch that confers a decidedly custom look on the exterior. The tan interior will no doubt draw you in closer, as it has a level of tasteful innovation you don't come across all that often. Both the well-padded and sturdily stitched bucket seats up front and the bench seat in back are covered in Ultraleather, a material that very closely matches the look and feel of leather but offers far superior stain resistance and durability. Beyond a show-stopping chrome steering wheel sits a dash area with an instrument cluster that looks completely untampered with at first glance, but carries a full assortment of digital gauges and a new dash pad up top. Your listening needs will be well-attended to in this Chevy, as a Kenwood AM/FM/CD with auxiliary and USB ports powers an array of speakers that includes subwoofers securely mounted in a cabinet behind the rear seats. Just as you'd likely expect from a ride showing as much craftsmanship as this one does, the trunk area in back is well-detailed, with clean carpeting on its floor and a seamlessly installed wall partitioning its storage area from the subwoofer cabinet residing just in front of it. A 350 cubic inch LT1 engine with tuned port injection sits underneath the aggressively scooped hood that's configured to feed it a supply of cold dense air for added power via a Ram Air Charger sitting on top. With a 4-speed automatic 700r4 transmission sitting just behind it, this is a drivetrain well-suited to low-RPM highway driving as well as more spirited motoring pursuits. The combination of power steering and power brakes also figures into the mix in making this performance machine very comfortable for everyday driving. Dramatic but undeniably tasteful at the same time, this vintage cruiser sits on a set of 18" Incubus Alloy wheels, outfitted with Falken tires. With its mix of innovative craftsmanship and exhilarating power, this 1975 Chevrolet Nova would be the perfect score for the enthusiast looking for a ride with high impact looks and the performance to back them up.
