Description

This 1968 Chevrolet Nova just gets all the best stuff correct. It's the right bold color; it has all the right upgrades (like A/C); it's the right year; and the right power from the fuel-injected small block V8. So you know it's the right classic for you.1968 was the first year of the new bodystyle and the last for the Chevy II name. That makes this a very desirable coupe even before you inspect the details. Originally spec'd as a Butternut Yellow, the new Lemon Ice is a great way to show that this coupe is modern while still respecting its heritage. This yellow is bolder than anything that could come out of the '60s, and it also benefits from the kind of finish that comes from investing in a very professional hand applying plenty of clearcoat. When you get it out in the sunlight the shine rolls off the straight panels with the kind of luster that makes you proud to show this one off. With a shimmer this nice only the best chrome will do on the wraparound bumpers. Plus, all this brightness is balanced out nicely with the blacked out SS grille and rear panel, as well as the dark lower rockers. Finishing out the aggressive and premium image are a set of 15-inch American Racing Torq Thrust wheels.Inside, bucket seats and a center console do a fantastic job of keeping with this coupe's upscale muscle car image. The door panels, dash, carpeting, and headliner are all in excellent shape, and so they create a rich, dark atmosphere. You'll slip behind the Chevy three-spoke sports steering wheel and gaze at the cool ultra-wide speedometer. The AutoMeter tach mounted on the column and the quad set of auxiliary gauges on the center console all tell you this is a special Nova, but this car is more than just pure speed. There are some subtle modern upgrades like the cup holders and the AM/FM/cassette stereo whose knob-style appearance hides a digital tuner for better adaptation. But the modern upgrade you'll certainly love the best is the Vintage Air system that runs modern R134a air conditioning through the factory controls and vents.This is the kind of motor that will get you awards at car shows. In fact, you might have to warn people to put on sunglasses before you lift the hood. The valve covers, master cylinder, intake, pulleys, and so much more have a mirror-like shine. In fact, we dare you to find one more component that can be polished! Plus, you've notice by now how the valve coves, plug wires, and other details are trimmed in an exterior-matching yellow. That's just the kind of detail that tells you there was some real care when this car was restored about seven years ago. But beyond the great presentation is the substance of a Ram Jet 350 cubic-inch crate motor. The fuel-injected V8 is known for some serious power, and everyone within earshot will know it thanks to the growl of the header-fed dual exhaust. And while it has the power to be a brute, this custom build is a lot more thoughtful. For example, it also has an aluminum radiator w/electric fan, so your big power V8 can stay cool even if you're in traffic with the A/C running. Plus, features like power steering, three-speed automatic transmission, and front disc brakes are all the elements you want in a great driving classic.Complete with build receipts, there was a lot of time and money invested into making this Nova a cut-above classic (just check out how clean the undercarriage is.) Everything about this vintage coupe is right, which is why you have to act right now before it's gone. Call today!!!
