1975 Chevrolet Nova

This 1975 Chevrolet Nova is just full of surprises. It has a touch of Super Sport flair inside and out, and the rarely-seen hatchback body style makes it both distinct and useful. And as you look through the whole car, it seems the full package is done with care.

This was the debut model year for the 4th gen Nova. They seem to take the lessons learned from their predecessors to give us one of the most attractive designs of the series. It means that it is a smaller car that always looks far more substantial. The large flat nose, formal roof design, and large chrome bumpers give it a Malibu kind of impression. But the most interesting feature is in the rear. This looks like it has a large formal trunk, but keen eyes will notice how the seam runs up the rear glass and into the roof. It slyly hides the optional hatchback, and so we know you\'ll just love watching everyone\'s reaction as the full rear lifts open. It\'s the ultimate mix of style and function, and that sets the tone right for the whole car. There are cool touches of sporty style with the Rally wheels, added SS badges, raised white letter tires, and white stripes against the bright red paint. But the full package is not too fancy because this one also wants to be the car that you\'ll never be afraid to take on the open road.

The white interior goes well with the white exterior accents. As a true cruiser, there\'s a good amount of space for family and friends, and just like the exterior, it never gets too fancy. It\'s just a comfortable environment with nice details like the classic wood-like trim in the doors, insignia-style trim in the seatbacks, and the lights that greet you when the door opens. There\'s even factory air conditioning to keep you and you passengers comfortable. The hatchback is useful for everything from tailgating to loading up with products to promote your business, and the upgraded AM/FM/cassette stereo even means you can enjoy better driving music. So it seems like the kind of classic Chevy that\'s ready for driving. In fact, that\'s why you also have a nice driver-oriented feel with the well-contoured front bucket seats, a shifter to rest your right hand, and a classic NK4 sports steering wheel.

Since this car likes to be both vintage and distinct, it\'s nice to see Chevy\'s 250 cubic-inch inline six under the hood. These have a reputation for being hardy, and the way the motor fires up and runs reaffirms the feeling of steadfastness. You can see proper care in the details, including the Optima red top battery. We like the smooth nature of the inline motor and the control you get from the three-speed manual transmission. Plus, power steering and front disc brakes make for a solid driver\'s package.

The sale comes complete with nice extras like the owner\'s manual and maintenance records. We bet there are plenty of you out there who see the value price as a great base for a V8 upgrade/restomod project. This is absolutely true. But we also like how this one is from day one with so much distinction built into a cruiser-ready classic. So no matter your plans for this one, you know you need to hurry if you want to make it yours. Call today!!!
