1962 Chevrolet Nova

Chevy 2-Hardtop-400 Hardtop (NO POST)

199 6-Cyl

Automatic

Clear

Gasoline

I have a 1962 Chevy II Nova 2-Door Hardtop Model 400. This 62 NOVA has the first ever Chevy Factory Alarm System. There were not many cars that received the Factory Alarm. Look at the pictures and notice the left rear fender. You will see a barrel key alarm switch. That's how you alarm the car. You use the key to turn it on once you get out of the car. A cool concept for its day. I bought this from a friend in Arizona. The car is complete but hasn't ran in a few years. The car has the original 199 6-cylinder engine in it and the Powerglide transmission. The car needs some things done with the motor before it will run. The ignition coil is missing. The radiator is not hooked up. The carb needs rebuilding. Belts, hoses, complete tune up and all fluids must be done. I took the seats out because I had to see the floor. The only real rust I found was the drivers foot area. The trunk section also needs attention and will need the trunk tub installed. I priced that part out and found it for $135 at Ecklers. This nova is complete. The suspension and body are great. There is one dent that I need to point out and that's the tip of the quarter panel. Not bad but it is a dent. The passenger window just cracked so I will find a glass for it. The 1962 was the first year that the nova was created. I am selling this as is and for a low price. You can come see her when ever you want to. I'm in Pembroke Pines, Florida. NEW INFO::: I found the original owner from California. He told me that the car was in a secured barn in Arizona since 1992. The car was started regularly. There is only 5 in the USA that are for sale which are original, according to an internet search we did. This car has NO added aftermarket parts on it. The motor, dash, seats, steering, wipers, vents and buttons are all from its 1962 maiden voyage. Yes it needs refurbishing but it is all here. If you rebuild the carb, fix the radiator, put new hoses on and get the fuel pump to carb lines, get hoses and belts and a tune up than she will be a daily driver, still needs a passenger window and seats need to be redone. I have the original shop manual. This is a project car, but one that will have amazing results. Do your self a favor and come take a look at the Nova. I recently had a master builder come take a look at the nova because he was interested in owning it. He did not buy it for the $10,000 I was asking but he did tell me some valuable information. The car has original trim and the body is very solid. He liked the floors and how original it is but he wanted a 1962 nova that needed less attention. He guessed that it will take more than 100 hours of work and possibly as many as 500 hours of work to complete the restoration. I'm lowering my price now. I will offer a true view live video for you via Facetime so you can have the actual knowledge of what you are interested in. This is by far the best way for an out of towner to see the car in its NOW state. I don't want you to buy this car until you get the full details of condition, parts, looks, potential and overall feel for it. Its not like spending $20 on a set of spark plugs. Please do your research on the 1962 Chevy 2 Nova. Remember, this is a true classic and what makes it very desirable is that its a 2 door without the window-roof POST. I do understand that the car only has the 6 cylinder in it but I also know that the motor is the original motor and everything matches. That is where the money is at. Anyone can buy a crate motor or go to the junk yard and find a V8 I have not hidden anything from you about the description of this Nova but I might have missed a few items-parts so that is why I am offering you the Facetime Call. I can always send you another picture or I can shoot a personal video of the area of your choice. I have a collection of personal vehicles and most of them I bought on line so I know how important it is to get the best description possible.On Jun-22-14 at 10:55:28 PDT, seller added the following information: I have since learned some more specific details about this Particular Nova. I was told by one of the leading Nova Builders in the USA that the alar m I wrote is a Factory Alarm is not correct. This year (62) there was no alarm that was put in by GM. I am not 100% sure of when it was installed but I just know that it is there. There is no Barrel key that I can find that will fit it but I am confident that you can install any barrel keyed switch there if you want to replace it. Once again, I want you to know everything there is to know about the condition and parts that are on this car. The Nova expert who reached out to me also pointed out that the ignition switch is not mentioned to be missing in my description. I want to make it clear that the ignition switch with the key is not in the car. The previous owner has put a toggle switch in the Nova. You can see it in the picture (red) with 2 wires. I will try and find the proper switch for the winning bidder. I also have a trailer load of Nova Parts 1962-1965 that I would consider selling (some of the parts) that is... I have clusters, trim, hoods, fenders, glass, electrical, switches, handles, lights and bezels. Etc..etc.. Etc.. I can send you pics of whatever you want to look at with this Nova or my trailer load of parts... All you need to do is text my HOTLINE 9549809339. As we go along here with this Nova Listing there are plenty of new and different stuff we are learning about this Nova. My main goal is to get all of the correct information that I know about out to you as soon as I know.
