1966 Chevrolet Nova

Another beautiful and hand-selected classic icon here at Basil Classics. Up for your consideration is this 1966 Chevrolet Nova Super Sport L79. This is the holy grail of Novas: Marina blue, actual super sport, numbers-matching ZI block, and linked to a 4-speed manual trans -what else could you want? This car was recently pulled out of a private museum, where the gentleman had taken excellent care of it for many years. Looking down the sides, straight and clean paint all around, with a well-finished undercarriage. This Nova is a true 118 VIN Super Sport. The car is finished in Chevrolets iconic F paint, which corresponds to the stunning Marina Blue you see on it today. Under the hood, you will see the famous dual snorkel chrome air cleaner on top of its 4-barrel carburetor. The L79 was well known for its high performance from 1965 to 1968. You could find it in the Corvettes, Novas, and Chevelles. This combination of its lightweight body and a potent, high-compression small-block V8 made it a legendary sleeper that was quick enough to outperform its larger competition. The L79 option got you a high-compression small block, forged pistons, a performance camshaft, big-valved heads, a Holley 4-barrel carburetor, and a close-ratio 4-speed manual transmission. On the interior of the Nova, you will see it trimmed in black vinyl bucket seats, a center console holding the 4-speed manual transmission, and a Hurst shifter. This car had undergone a restoration at some point in its life, and it shows the craftsmanship throughout. Paint is clean and laser straight, gaps and all uniform throughout the vehicle, engine bay, interior, and undercarriage, all carefully detailed to present the way you see it today. When firing this Nova up, it is hard to miss the unmistakable exhaust note from the dual exhausts under the impeccable rechromed rear bumper. This is one you dont want to miss.
