  • Right here is one intimidating car. This menacing 1968 Chevrolet Nova Restomod is a true street machine, ready to tear up the streets at any moment. With loads of restomod features such as a massive V8 Big block engine with aluminum heads, a cowl hood, an aggressive stance, crazy performance, and eye-catching wheels, what else is there to want from a street racer such as this? Powered by a massive Big Block engine paired to a 4-barrel carburetor and an MSD ignition system, this Nova goes like hell, believe me. All that power gets to the rear wheels with a 3:55 Posi and through an updated 4-speed 700R4 automatic transmission, which shifts as if this Nova was on the dragstrip at all times. The black paint gleams beautifully, but it only adds to the intimidating feel of this car. The car also has an aggressive stance to compliment the paint and wheels, as if the car wants you to know it should be taken seriously. The black vinyl bench seats on the interior are comfortable but the interior is also spartan, befitting of a true street machine. This scary '68 comes with a plethora of performance options, including a 4" cowl hood, aluminum heads, an aluminum radiator, an MSD ignition system, a chrome engine bay, aftermarket headers, under-dash performance gauges, radio delete, a heater, power steering, and an incredibly mean-sounding dual exhaust system. To add to the aggressive feel of this Nova, it rides on some sweet-looking Ridler wheels on top of some performance-oriented Cooper RS3-GT tires. This Nova is on our lot now, looking for a new home. After all, all it needs is a driver to get it back out to the strip!

    My dad's last car was a 70 Nova, didn't look like this one. The hood is a pinch too tall for me but I wouldn't kick it out of my garage either.. Merry Christmas boys!!

    Menacing sure fits this beast, this car is all about that motor, I don`t like the hood, but everything else works for me. I like the traction bars yellow, that`s a beautiful idle, thanks guys.

    Old man had a 71.... Small block out of one of the pro stock cars built by Glen personally the crews mechanic.... They would take the cranks out of the 400 small blocks from the school buses they were stronger.... All hand built and ported ol skool 383!! In a 71 Nova on the street thing was a machine. . Unfortunately I only really remember looking out the little back window Ripping insideways through intersections... And The two-door Caprice that was bone stock but it was one of my favorites. I remember playing with the hood ornament

    Those traction bars look good yellow but... that's just an opinion. I'm sure black will look just fine. 🤔First thing I noticed though.

    This little car was one incredible car if you had any where with all back in the day and you could build this motor a little bit it was virtually unbeatable we raced 442 and I had a hemikuta but I'm not sure if the hemikuta could have beat this car we had up in Erie PA back in the day it was running about 560 horsepower and it was just brutal but it's got to be 1 of the greatest little cars ever built Good luck with it..
