The Chevy Nova, or Chevy II as it was also known, was the Bowtie’s contender in the compact car space between 1962 and 1979. It was quite a departure from Chevy’s other offerings that included full-size and midsize cars, plus sports, muscle and pony cars. Nevertheless, the Nova was a best-seller throughout much of the Sixties, since it represented affordable motoring for the masses who didn’t want a land yacht of epic proportions and eye-watering price. Now, the Nova is a great classic car, as well as a fine restomod platform. This particular 1966 Chevrolet Nova SS Restomod is a great example of the latter category, as it’s undergone a full restoration and has just 400 miles on its stonking new motor.
Wearing a bright shade of yellow that looks just like Tweety Bird’s color, this 1966 Chevrolet Nova SS Restomod is a sight for sore eyes. The car’s mean stance and 14x15 chunky rear wheels immediately mark it out as something out of the ordinary. Then, you notice that monster motor poking out of the hood because it just couldn’t be contained within the car’s engine compartment. Yes, this isn’t a car for those who shun attention; on the contrary, it’s a car that will steal the limelight at any car meet or show. The interior of this 1966 Chevrolet Nova SS Restomod is similarly attractive, with a black and yellow theme going on. You’ve got leather-upholstered low-back seats, floormats with the Chevy emblem, and a push-button radio in the center console. There are also some auxiliary gauges, plus a tachometer just to the right hand side of the linear-style speedometer. A sporty steering wheel, and a chrome-topped gear shift knob connected to a B&M shifter top off the interior highlights of this car – but those aren’t what most potential buyers will be interested in…
Now, if you’re looking at this 1966 Chevrolet Nova SS Restomod, you’d definitely want to know more about that monster motor. We’ve saved the best for last, as it’s a truly amazing 468ci big-block V8 with twin Holley carbs, an 8.5 to 1 compression ratio, and Bowtie aluminum heads. If that’s not enough, the engine’s got a blower strapped to it for even more power. Power goes to the rear wheels through a 700R4 automatic gearbox and a 10-bolt Chevy rear end. Then, there’s coilover shocks and a ladder bar rear suspension set-up. So strap in, because it’s gonna be one helluva ride.

Chevy’s Nova was a compact car from the Bowtie, aimed at offering affordable and convenient motoring to the American public who didn’t want or couldn’t afford one of the brand’s larger, sportier or more opulent offerings. The Nova was wildly popular as a result, and can be considered a ‘bread and butter car’. After all, it’s nice to make low-volume, expensive sports and luxury cars, but you want your bread and butter cars to sell in volumes, in order to pay the bills. Today, the Nova has cemented a reputation as a great American classic to own and drive. Need more convincing? Take a look at this 1964 Chevrolet Nova Coupe and you’ll see what we mean. Although we must tell you, this Nova isn’t strictly stock. All information, as reported by the current owner, points to it being quite a performance beast, and a delectable treat to drive.
The 1970 Chevrolet Nova has built itself a reputation as one of the most accessible and easily customized muscle cars of its era. It has a loyal fan base. Whether you’re looking for a stock throwback to a time of big displacement or a retro design modified with modern parts, the Nova platform is one of the best ways to achieve either. Our featured car manages to preserve much of its originality. The owner reports that this 1970 Chevrolet Nova has all its original sheet metal. It features a new V8 engine has also been rebuilt and rebored to 380ci. If you like what you see, get in touch to make this muscle car yours to take home.
A first-generation Chevy Corvette is a fantastic car to own and drive. It’s a piece of American automotive history, after all. Produced between 1953 and 1962, over 69,000 were made. It was also the only Corvette era to come with a six-cylinder engine choice, something that Chevy quickly realized didn’t suit a flagship sports car. Thankfully, all Corvettes thereafter have packed a V8. Many people nowadays want an original first-gen Corvette, but there are some who love restomods. If that sounds familiar, have we got the car for you! Say Howdy to this Pennsylvania-based 1960 Chevrolet Corvette LS3 Restomod that’s got just 1,000 miles after its comprehensive makeover. There’s a lot to learn about this car, so let us give you the highlights, but don’t forget to shoot us a DM or give us an old-fashioned phone call if you’re interested.
Ford has the Mustang, and Chevrolet had the Camaro. Back in the ’60s, it was a winning duo for consumers, with the two frontrunners in the pony car race battling on both backroads and race tracks. Our featured 1968 Chevrolet Camaro is a fine specimen just waiting to go to a new home. It features a striking blue exterior, a well-kept black interior, and a 383ci stroker V8 under the hood. This immaculate classic has reportedly been subject to a recent motor and transmission install, which means it should offer a trouble-free ownership experience to whoever is lucky enough to take possession next.
Now in its third generation, the 1980 Chevrolet Corvette (or C3) was coming to the end of its life. But this typically American creation still had a lot to offer, with the solid underpinnings of the C3 ’Vette and the gorgeous Mako Shark II-inspired bodywork. Launched in 1968, it was still known as a serious alternative to the best that Europe had to offer. Our featured car includes a 350ci L48 V8 engine paired with an automatic transmission and features several upgrades to improve not only reliability but performance as well.

If there’s one category of vehicle we’d love to see return in 2025, it would be the “Personal Luxury Car.” These individualized creations focused on being the ultimate in luxury coupes, with comfort being one of the key factors for individuals who like to drive alone. The market was dominated by cars like the Ford Thunderbird, but the upmarket division of the Ford group had their own take on it too, and that came in the form of the Lincoln Mark IV. Our featured 1983 Lincoln Mark IV looks sinister in its deep black paint job with a matching black leather interior and a smoother 5.0-liter V8 engine. The car has 58,000 reported miles on the odometer and looks to be a well-preserved example that will likely appreciate in value in years to come.
