Vehicle Detail

1962 Chevrolet Chevy II (Nova) 300 Series 3 Seat Wagon Survivor First Year Rarest of all Nova's. . . first year Chevy II 300 series 8-pass. station wagon with the extremely rare third row seat option, offered only in 1962 and 1963. Original one-owner California black plate car that I bought and drove back to New York 4 years ago (some photos included here are from the trip home from California). 132,000 miles on it, which appears to be actual. Car is currently being driven, so mileage will increase. Car is completely original, never been hit, and everything is solid and straight. Front fenders both previously repaired above the headlights, a common area for corrosion on these cars. The bottom of the tailgate also has corrosion, also common on these cars. Dings and chips to be expected for a 52 year old car, but all of the sheet metal is original. Paint touched up over the years in spots with a paint brush, apparently by the original owner. The left front fender and right side rear door both have a slight crease in them. The chrome on the bumpers is weathered. Sub-frame is solid. Still has factory red-oxide primer on the underside of the floor; never undercoated. Floors in good shape, with the exception of a small spot under the driver's and front passenger's feet, where floor and firewall meet. The driver side has an old repair. The passenger side still needs repair, which is a very easy fix. Rocker panels are straight and solid. Front seat is covered due to wear. Rear seat fabric is in very good condition. Third seat is nearly perfect. Door panels are factory fresh. Dash paint is almost perfect, as is the dash pad. It has a replacement carpet. 194 cubic inch 6 cylinder, air cooled Powerglide, manual steering. Engine taps; likely a valve lifter or something along those lines. Drove it home from California like this with no problems. Good oil pressure, runs great. This rare vehicle is ready and roadworthy enough to be driven anywhere without concern. Brakes all rebuilt, New rear axle bearings and seals, steering has some slop and will eventually need attention. 5 new Firestone whitewall tires. Car will be sold with its original black California plates and dealer plate frame. Comes with a New York State paper registration slip, as titles were not available for model years prior to 1972. Original owners manual and service receipts will go with the car. If you have any questions, please feel free to call me (Charlie) at 516-242-7505 during daytime hours or 631-929-4970 during evenings/weekends, or send me a message.
