NO RESERVE!!! 1966 Chevy Nova Conveetible. As most of you know The Nova was not available in a Convertible in 1966. This car started life as a base model 4 door sedan with a 6 cylinder and a 3 on the tree manual trans. That is it. It was made into a convertible and the rear doors were welded in. I have owned many muscle cars over the years but this car gets the looks. My kids love it and do not want to see it go. I just have too much going on. It is mostly original paint and interior. It is a real cool car to cruise around in. It has so much potential to be whatever you want it to be. This body looks great as a convertible. It has Rally Wheels. 2 are factory originals and 2 are reproductions with a little different back spacing to get the look it has. The center caps are original GM pieces. Not sure on the rings but they look to be new original ones. The car runs and drives great. Everything works except the horn. There is an antenna but no stereo. It has guages in place of the stereo. The Nova runs cool and oil pressure is strong. Always starts right up. Trans is strong and the clutch is great. Has newer breaks. Carb was rebuilt. Body: The body is in good overall condition. It is solid in the back and trunk. There is some rust appearing on the lower rear of the front fenders. The floor is a little spotty in places with some sheetmetal pieces covering a few holes. The nice thing is no hacking has been done to the floor at all. It has a very solid engine compartment all the way back to the cown. The inside where the front door hinges are is showing some rust. On the top below the windshield on the passanger side is showing some rust. Not around the window frame though. The body is not saging at all. The person who made the car welded a frame conector on the drivers side. The other side does not have one. I will add one if I keep it. The doors are solid with surface rust at the bottom. The hood and trunk are in excellent condition. The front LH fender could use a little work. The front of the LH door has a little damage to the sheetmetal only. Can be worked out and metal finished. The grille is nice and the trim is in good overall shape. I have done some research and some people add the tops from a earlier Nova convertible with the windshield header. Interior: The interior is mostly original. The dash is solid with no rust at all. Under the dash is solid as well. It has its original front and rear seat. The carpet has been replaced and seats recovered at some point. It has seat belts for 5 people. Someone added a bar across the back of the rear seat. It is like an amusement park ride bar. Kids have a ball with it. The heater is not hooked up. I would assume it needs a core and that is why it was bypassed. The lights all work. Turn signals work, They do not cancel though. That is a manual process. The wiper switch operators the wipers but there are no arms or blades. The steering wheel on the Nova does not go with it. It will be changed out for the custom one in the pictures. Choice of center section. 2 options. See pictures. Trunk: The trunk is in excellent condition with no rust at all. Underside: The subframe, front inner fenders, rear wheel wells and trunk area are solid with no rust at all. Engine: Runs strong with no noises. Has a Flowmaster mufler so it sounds pretty cool. These 194 6's have a lot of torque. Trans: Shifts great and the cluch is solid. I was going to get a hump and add a floor shifter to it. Top: Well, There isn't one. The well area has a simulated boot on the back. It would cost a lot of money and time to get to this point with one of these cars when you can drive this one the way it is or fix it up the way you want and drive it at the same time. These are not inexpensive cars any more to acquire. Watch My listings as there will be 73-74 Chevy Truck Parts and more 70-71 Cuda Parts coming soon.

As you can see in the pictures there is a strip covering where the windows would go on the doors. They can be added if someone wants to get them and to do so.
