If anyone brings up a compact muscle car, chances are they're bringing up a Chevrolet Nova. When it comes to this 1975 Chevrolet Nova, it's easy to see why. With a numbers-matching engine under the hood, straight bodylines, factory A/C and 78,308 believed-to-be original miles showing on the odometer, this '75 Nova is the real deal. Powered by a numbers-matching 262 C.I. Chevrolet V8 breathing easy through a 2-barrel carburetor, this Chevy makes for one fantastic cruiser. Torque is put to the pavement through a 3-speed "TH350" automatic transmission, shifting seamlessly as the car glides down the road. The exterior is covered in striking "Bright Red" paint, which has a stunning gleam in the sun after being buffed to a brilliant shine. That same paint covers this Nova's laser-straight bodylines wonderfully, and the chrome brightwork is in excellent shape throughout. In addition, the floors, frame, trunk and jambs are all rock-solid, and each present well! Opening this Nova's twin doors reveals a beautifully-original black vinyl interior, complete with comfy bench seats that are perfect for long-distance drives as well as characteristic woodgrain trim that adds a splash of luxury feel to the interior! Owing to the interior's original quality, there's a small one-seam split in the front seat and a single crack in the dashboard. If anything, those just add to the car's original character! Options fitted to this '75 Nova include power steering, power brakes, front disc brakes, factory A/C, an aftermarket AM/FM digital radio, dual chrome mirrors, factory gauges, under-dash aux. gauges, and a sweet-sounding Flowmaster dual exhaust system. The car rides on a good-looking set of 15" chrome wheels over blackwall tires, giving this car a vintage appearance that makes it look as if it just drove out of 1975. For as great as this Nova looks, it runs and drives down the road even better. Turn the key and that 262 V8 starts right up, ready to go at the push of the throttle. It isn't every day you come across a 4th-Gen Nova with the originality and drivability that this one has, and if you're in the market for a turn-key mid-70s cruiser with irresistible Chevrolet power, then you don't get a whole lot better than this.
