It's hard to think of a compact muscle car without immediately thinking of the legendary Chevrolet Nova. This specific 1970 Nova is one fantastically angry example, one that's meant to do nothing but one thing: go fast. Powered by a 350 C.I. small-block V8 breathing through a Holley 4-barrel carburetor, this '70 Nova really screams. That small-block V8 is also built to run on E-85 octane gasoline, meaning you won't hurt your wallet as you drive! It's also outfitted with an aftermarket high-rise intake manifold and aluminum heads, allowing for even more power output! Torque is stomped into the pavement through a quick-shifting 3-speed automatic transmission, equipped with a B&M shifter allowing for better times at the dragstrip. The exterior is bathed in a driver's-quality Silver Metallic paintjob, covering the length of this Nova's straight bodylines nicely. In addition, the floors, frame, trunk & jambs are all very solid and in nice shape! Opening the doors reveals a spartan yet functional black vinyl interior, equipped with comfy vinyl bucket seats that are perfect for cruising. Options on this mean little Nova include 4-wheel disc brakes, a functional cowl-induction hood, an aluminum radiator with pusher fan, aftermarket aluminum heads, MSD ignition, an aftermarket high-rise intake manifold, toggle switches, Caltracs traction bars, an aftermarket steering wheel, tinted windows, an AutoGauge tachometer, a heater + defroster, vent windows, dual chrome mirrors, and an aggressive-sounding dual exhaust system. The car rides on a sweet set of 15" Jegs Performance wheels over fat Cooper Cobra tires in the rear and skinnies up front for a stance that's ready to take on the strip! Believe us, with the way this Nova runs and drives, it's going to put a smile on your face anytime you're behind the wheel, so don't let it pass you by!
