This Nova SS is owned & built by a big muscle car collector who owns very high end cars. Everything is completely brand new or restored. I spared no expense building this car for my own enjoyment. It comes from NV & CA where my restoration shop is located and was brought to my summer home in WV to cruise and take to car shows. The roads are now in such poor condition in WV that I don’t want to drive it since the car is so pristine. Over 65K invested in this ground up restoration. The car is extremely well sorted, and starts, runs and drives flawlessly. No leaks. No rust. No excuses. This true Nova SS has just the right stance and look.

Ready to show & go!

We have wiper arms but have them removed since the car doesn’t get driven in rain and we like the look without them.

Walk around video available upon request with engine cold start and running.

Rallye wheels with radial redline tires available at additional cost
