With a deadline of just 18 months, then Chevy designer Clare MacKichan and his team had no time for trial and error. The goal was to build a compact, affordable, high-selling car. MacKichan hit the nail on the head with the introduction of the Chevrolet Nova in 1962, making it one of the fastest-produced vehicles in GM's history. Of course, like all vehicles, the Nova evolved with each generation, making itself a real competitor in the muscle car segment with the third generation as featured here. The third-gen Nova is a favorite among those who like the adrenaline rush of the drag strip, and if you are one of them, you might already notice that this is exactly what said vehicle has been built for.
The third-generation Chevy Nova had a distinctive exterior design that was more aerodynamic and sportier than its predecessors. The car featured a long hood, short deck, and a fastback-style roofline that sloped down to a short rear deck, the tell-tale features of a muscle car at the time. This specific 1972 Chevrolet Nova can instantly be identified as a track-focused car, if not by the 671-blower peeking out of the hood, then by the reportedly new disproportionate tire setup and rear spoiler. The car is also reportedly equipped with disk brakes upfront while maintaining drums for the rear. Looking into the interior, it becomes very much more apparent that the previous owner of this Nova wasn't too keen on preserving its originality. Rather, what he saw fit was a racing roll cage protecting a set of bucket seats and a dash full of gauges to constantly keep feeding you information because that's what really matters when you're trying to complete a quarter mile unreasonably fast.
Not too much about the engine of this 1973 Chevrolet Nova has been revealed other than the fact that it is a 454 Big Block V8 engine with a new 671 blower and blower gasket that is mated to a three-speed standard manual transmission to produce 800hp.
Many muscle cars of the '60s were no frills, "step on the gas and bring out the smiles per gallon" drive experiences. Being behind the wheel of one means you like unfiltered performance and are guaranteed to leave everlasting memories. Present today is not just any muscle car; it's an icon of the '60s car scene and takes shape as this spicy 1969 Chevy Nova SS. With a reported 23,061 miles on the clock, this thoroughbred is your way of livening up your weekend drives and taking your driveway game up a notch.
In terms of Chevrolet's compact automobile lineup, the Chevrolet Chevy II, later referred to as the Nova took the place of the Corvair. While the Corvair was a special and innovative model with a rear-engine layout, the Chevy II/Nova debuted in 1962 as a more traditional small automobile with an emphasis on functionality and simplicity of design. It saw five generations, and the top-of-the-line series cars were given the name Nova. After 1969, the Nova badge would replace the Chevy II moniker. The Nova has become somewhat of a cult classic. While it's small dimensions make it a clean little classic car, it's the keen target of hot rodders. This example of the 1966 Chevrolet Nova is not a hot rod but nevertheless has a few custom upgrades under its belt.
The Chevrolet Nova isn’t exactly what one might expect from a Chevy. It’s a compact, and later subcompact car that was introduced in 1961. The Nova was intended to be a basic, affordable car. However, as was inevitable, it soon gained sporting credentials. Take this 1970 Chevrolet Nova as a prime example. No doubt it was quite sporty when it left the factory gates, but the car has now received several enhancements to make it a real treat for keen drivers. With a mere 4,000 miles since it got several upgraded powertrain components, the car awaits a new owner.
Chevy’s Impala was the famous Bowtie automaker’s full-size offering for many years. It appeared sporadically between 1957 and 2020 and made it across ten generations. The Impala is named, as you may suspect, after the African antelope of the same name. It quickly won favor with the American auto-loving public due to its diverse array of body styles and, of course, V8 power. Up for sale today is a third-generation 1961 Chevrolet Impala Bubbletop Restomod, which reportedly packs 45,000 original miles. But, it’s received a comprehensive do-over, more power, and some modern comfort features.
The Chevrolet C-10 is often remembered as a half-ton short-bed pickup truck although they came in various body styles. The Fleetside was one of those variations; it has an essentially straight outer design and the truck's rear wheels are situated inside the truck bed beneath the wheel wells on either side of the bed. This fine example of the 1967 Chevrolet C-10 Short Bed Fleetside is an example that reportedly shows just 355 miles on the clock after its thorough restoration. It has exciting performance updates resembling a good old farm truck from the ‘60s. We were also informed that all work receipts are available to assure credibility.
For decades, the Chevrolet Corvette has remained an icon, and this 2008 Corvette hailing from the C6 generation isn’t any different. Considered to be a modern classic in the making, this Corvette – with its striking visuals and incredible performance – is a joy whether you’re on the track, or cruising towards your next destination. The current owner has gone through a plethora of mechanical and performance upgrades to wake up the beast under the hood with all the proper supporting mods. If you’re interested in investing in a tastefully modified Corvette with some extra ponies beneath the hood, then look no further. With only 59,500 miles on the clock, and the current owner reporting that all recalls having been addressed and fixed, this car is a property built to hop in and drive. Reportedly, the current owner has invested about $19,000 in the engine along with various performance and cosmetic upgrades, making this example a dream for anyone looking for an impeccable car that will last. With 500WHP at your control, this C6 is bound to leave a lasting impression.

The De Ville name was first introduced as a standalone model range in 1959 and would remain a significant part of the Cadillac lineup up till 2005. The 4th generation came in 1971, and every subsequent year brought styling changes until the smaller 5th generation was released in 1977. 1974 brought changes to the front end (like a new grille and a new headlamp layout), and the introduction of a new option; the Air Cushion Restraint System (what is now known as airbags) for both front-seat occupants. It was, however, a costly option that didn’t prove popular among buyers and was discontinued after 1976. A 1971 Coupe De Ville reportedly came 3rd in the Cannonball Run, averaging 84.6mph and 8.9mpg.
