I had this until 1998. Once I sold it I thought it was a huge mistake but in the end it brought me into G bodies. It was a true SS but not numbers matching. It had a nice 355 with a 4spd.

I used to be the "Nova" guy starting with a 72' SS and then a 71' and later I had a 74' hatchback daily driver.
My buddy has a 69' red Nova that he is currently building a 632 BBC for since he thought his old 598 BBC was too small.
Here is a video from a while back.

Nice! My first car was a 1970 Nova. I learned a tough lesson with that car when I rolled it end over end on Easter Sunday 1986.

Bias ply 60 series tires tend to hydroplane in the rain. :blam:
That dont sound to fun lol.
