On the lot now is a real looker. This burnt-orange 1970 Chevrolet Nova with SS trim is an extremely clean car! Featuring a black vinyl top, dual exhaust and a small-block V8, that Nova feeling doesn't get much better than this. The 3rd-gen Nova, of which this car is an example, was made from 1968 to 1974 and remains as one of the most capable muscle cars to ever wear the bowtie emblem, especially the ones made from 1968 to 1971. This one is befitting of that legacy, equipped with a hardy 350 C.I. V8 paired to an Edelbrock 4-barrel carburetor breathing through a massive air cleaner. Torque from that 350 gets to the pavement through the use of a column-shifted 3-speed automatic transmission, good for smooth cruising and for smooth, seamless shifting. The exterior "Burnt Orange" paint of this Nova looks great having been buffed to a beautiful shine, and it absolutely gleams under the sun. The black vinyl top is an excellent compliment to the paint, giving both an aggressive yet period-correct look at the same time. The interior is just as nice, with black vinyl trim matching the top and split bench seats in the front. An aftermarket Grant GT steering wheel helms this car, and air conditioning makes the interior even more comfortable! Options fitted to this '70 Nova include power steering, 4-wheel power disc brakes (for better stoppage!), air conditioning, a heater + defroster, aftermarket headlights, SunPro underdash performance gauges, a Grant GT steering wheel, an aftermarket tachometer, a Pioneer AM/FM/CD stereo system, newer speakers, vent windows, and a sweet-sounding dual exhaust system. The car rides on stock-style Chevrolet rally wheels over Cooper Cobra Radial GT RWL tires for a period-accurate muscular appearance. This is one Nova that runs and drives even better than it looks, which is really saying something. All it needs is a new driver, and we think you'd look pretty good sitting behind the wheel.
