YOU ARE BIDDING ON A 1973 NOVA "SS" HATCHBACK. THIS CAR WAS ORIGINALY PURCHASED AS A PARTS CAR FOR ANOTHER SHOW CAR THAT WE HAVE. HOWEVER, AFTER LOOKING INTO THIS CAR AND FINDING OUT ITS HISTORY I KEPT IT TO EVENTUALLY BUILD AND HAVE HIS AND HERS NOVA'S FOR MY WIFE AND I. SINCE THEN I HAVE BUILT OTHER PROJECTS AND HAVE DECIDED TO SELL THIS ONE. THIS CAR WAS AN ORIGINAL 4 SPEED CAR AND HAD BIG BLOCK MOUNTS WHEN I GOT IT. THE OWNER INFORMED ME THAT A COMPANY CALLED NIKKI CHEVROLET IN CHICAGO FITTED THE CAR WITH A 454 BIG BLOCK FRAME CONNECTORS AND A 4 SPEED TRANS. I HAVE DONE RESEARCH BUT GOT NOWHERE!!! THERE WAS A COMPANY CALLED NIKKI CHEVROLET IN CHICAGO AT THE TIME OF THE CAR AND THE GUYS STORY DID AD UP - BUT THATS ALL WE GOT. I CONTACTED A NOVA CLUB IN MICHIGAN AND THEY INFORMED ME THAT THE CHICAGO COMPANY DID NOT KEEP EXACT RECORDS AND A FIRE IN THE LATE 70'S DID NOT LEAVE A LOT OF RECORDS AS TO WHAT CARS GOT WHAT DONE TO THEM.. SO MAYBE IT'S A MYTH OR MAYBE FACT - WHATEVER IT IS - I GOT THE CAR! CLEAR FLORIDA TITLE! OK NOW THAT WE ALL GOT A HISTORY LESSON LETS GET INTO THE RIDE - THIS NOVA WAS GOING TO BE ANOTHER SHOW CAR, BUT AS I FOUND MORE AND MORE PARTS IT BECAME A STREET CAR. THE ENGINE IS OUT OF A CAMARO DRAG CAR THAT I PURCHASED JUST FOR THE ENGINE. THE MOTOR WAS PULLED FROM THE CAMARO AND PUT IN THE NOVA. SMALL BLOCK 350 BORED .030, FLAT TOP PISTONS, EAGLE RODS, LUNATI CAM AND LIFTER KIT, PRO COMP ROLLER ROCKERS, B&M FORCED AIR INDUCTION SUPERCHARGER WITH A HOLLEY 700CFM ON TOP. THEN THERE IS SOME BILLET, ELECTRIC FANS AND OTHER PERFORMANCE UPGRADES. IF SOMEONE IS BUILDING A HOT ROD THE DRIVE TRANE ALONE IS WORTH WHAT WE ARE ASKING FOR THE CAR! THE EXHAUST IS CERAMIC COATED HEADMAN HEADERS WITH ALL NEW 2-1/2" EXHAUST AND NEW FLOWMASTERS AND HANGERS. THE REAREND AND SUSPENSION IS A NEW 10 BOLT 411 RICHMOND REAR, HEAVY DUTY LEAF SPRINGS, NEW REAR SHOCKS, SUPER SOLID FRAME, TRACTION BARS, FRAME CONNECTORS, NEW FRONT DISK BRAKES AND CALIPERS. NEW BRAKE AND FUEL LINES, FRONT END HAS NEW BUSHINGS, TIE RODS, REPLACED "A" ARMS. NEW POWER STEERING BOX. THE BODY IS IN GOOD CONDITION - SOLID FENDERS, DOORS, ROCKERS, ROOF, ROOF LINES, AND HOOD. THE QUARTERS HAVE BEEN WORKED WITH NEW QUARTER SKINS AND TAIL LIGHT PANEL. THERE HAS BEEN BODY WORK DONE BUT IT IS NOT A BONDO BUCKET!!! THE HATCH HAD SURFACE RUST BUT IT HAS BEEN FIXED. THE HOOD IS A STEEL HOOD WITH A MOLDED 5" COWL. THE BODY OVERALL IS NICE AND LOOKS GOOD WITH BLACK PAINT.. THE INTERIOR IS IN GOOD CONDITION. CARPET IS OK, SEATS NEED COVERING, DOOR PANELS HAVE SOME CRACKS, HEADLINER OK, PLASTICS ARE NICE OTHER THAN SPEAKER CUT OUTS. DASH LIGHTS DONT WORK. LOOKS OK FOR A STREET CAR.. THE WHEELS ARE CENTERLINE PRO LINE RIMS AND GOOD TIRES THE TRANSMISSION IS A TURBO 350 WITH SHIFT KIT, KEFLAR BANDS, STAHL CONVERTER. (TRANS CAME OUT OF THE SAME CAMARO AS THE MOTOR) THE BUMPERS ARE NICE, TRIM IS GOOD, GRILL NICE, HEADLIGHTS, TAILIGHTS, ALL WORK. HATCH AREA (SPARE) IS SOLID, GLASS IS GOOD, B&M FLOOR SHIFTER, GRANT PRO STEERING WHEEL. THE BAD - THE DASH LIGHTS DONT WORK, THE REAR BUMPER FILLER IS MISSING (I HAVE AN OLD ONE WE WILL THROW IN) THE RUNS AND DRIVES FAST!!! BUT COULD BE DIALED IN BETTER. IT HAS A REGULAR GM STARTER AND CAN USE A HIGH TORQUE GEAR REDUCTION. IT HAD ONE THAT WENT BAD AND WE HAD THIS STARTER IN STOCK - THIS CAR WAS BUILT TO GO FAST AND LOOK MEAN! THAT IS WHAT I ACHIEVED SO I DID NOT GO CRAZY MAKING IT PERFECT! **WE APOLOGIZE FOR THIS LISTING BEING SO LONG BUT WE LIKE TO INFORM OUR CUSTOMERS THE BEST WE CAN ABOUT THERE PURCHASES.
