The Nova made its debut in 1963 as an entry-level compact vehicle for the economy-minded car buyers. Chevrolet restyled the Nova in 1968 and it bore a design similar to the Chevelle. The redesign allowed more passenger room for its occupants along with addition space for big-block V8 engines. By this point in history, it had displaced the Chevy II nameplate and matured into its own slot in the Chevrolet lineup. Available with the Super Sport option, the 1969 model would remain much the same.
The base engine was a 4-cylinder unit, with a plethora of engine and transmission combinations available. This particular example is a Nova SS fitted with a numbers matching L78 396 cubic-inch V8 offering 375 horsepower and backed by a rare Turbo 400 transmission. It has been in the care of its current owner for the last 25 years.
