1978 Chevrolet Nova

1978 Chevrolet Nova Description

Refreshed interior and solid to drive... Cragers all around... 265's on front and 295's on rear.
This is a great old school cruiser... This is not a car to abuse and run through the end of the speedometer on the interstate like one tire kicker did on a test drive. This is a head turning cruiser that is fun to drive and pulls people in every parking lot.

Fuel System: New Gas Tank to Fuel Pump including new fuel sending unit in tank... New Eldebrock 4BBL Carb [1406]. Cranks the old 350 and runs great.
Brake System: New Master Cylinder to Rear Brakes. Stops great.
Suspension and Steering: Newsteering components in front (center link, idler arm et al) and new suspension in rear including leaf springs and shocks all around ... Much more... Feels great to drive.
Interior: New Interior Seats. New Dash. We have new ready to install on as well as new arm rests.
Body and Other: Replaced the blacked out tail lights and benzels, even bulbs replaced with LEDs.
There is more to do ... The Paint is just ok from 30 feet... will need to be repainted... The body has no rust, too many dings and some of the work like the former owner's floor pan replacement and body work should have been better. No AC. No radio.

Purchased last September out ofMichigan as a rust free car. Turned out that was all that could be said... lots of effort to get it safe and fun to drive.

This has been a great project with/for my 17 year old... Runs great... We have a LOT invested...
It has turned out just too tempting to drive based on its looks rather than common sense... so we have found a milder classic...
Drives great... This is just a very cool old muscle car... just too much temptation for our young driver.
Have invested over $10k...
