This 1975 Chevrolet Nova was in the process of being restored but due to my health issues, could not be finished. Needs new paint and front grille. Below is a factory pic and dealer descriptions. Bench cloth seats. The motor has been rebuilt, see specs in the photos. Holly 1180 and a 1070 carburetors included, solid-state Mallory ignition. The 1975 Nova LN Coupe had cushy front seats that felt like "lounge chairs." |
Two-door coupes and hatchbacks and four-door sedans remained. Basic Novas could be spiced up with a sport-striped SS two-door option. But the big news in trim was introduction of the LN coupe and sedan.
The LN sent Nova into the luxury portion of the compact market; some actually thought of it as competing against a few high-end European imports. The Nova LN was called "the most luxurious compact in Chevrolet's history," with wide-back reclining front seats that "look and feel like big, soft lounge chairs."
LN equipment included adÂditional sound insulation, map pockets, an electric clock, a smoked instrument lens, and a day/night mirror. Swing-out quarter windows could be ordered for the coupe. "Thanks to LN," the sales brochure announced, "Nova's image will never be the same again."
All Novas now had cut-pile carpeting, formerly installed only in the Custom series.Speedometershad larger, easier-to-read graphics. Windshields offered greater glass area. Front-door armrests were redesigned with integral pull bars.
Front tread grew by an inch and a half, and the front stabilizer bar was thicker. Novas now had frontdisc brakesand steel-belted radial tires.
