All it needs is a new driver, and we think you'd look pretty good sitting behind the wheel. This is one Nova that runs and drives even better than it looks, which is really saying something. Greg Semeraro was bitten by the car bug as a child, thanks in large measure to the influence of his older brother Mark, who had a 1974 Monte Carlo as a teenager. The car rides on a sleek set if chrome Rev wheels over "Federal" blackwall tires, skinnier out front and fatter out back. Options fitted to this Nova include power steering, 4-wheel power disc brakes, air conditioning, a vintage-style AM/FM radio, Bosch underdash gauges, a Bosch tachometer, seatbelts, newer speakers, and a dual exhaust system. The interior is just as nice, with black vinyl bench seats that provide excellent support for cruising. What really sticks out on this Nova is the glossy black paint, reflecting like a mirror in the sun after being buffed to a brilliant shine. 'Now its beautiful,' said the brochure of Novas all-new sheet metal, 'refined along the lines of elegant European sedans.' Chevrolet wisely maintained a visual kinship with the 19681974 design, and also retained Novas efficiently sized 111-inch wheelbase. Torque from that 350 gets to the rear axle through the use of a 3-speed automatic transmission on the column, allowing for both smooth cruising and for going a little faster. The 1975 Chevrolet Nova was the most-changed Chevy car for that model year. V8 breathing through a 4-barrel carburetor, this Nova gets underway like a champ.
This one, however, dares to be different.
After waiting for hours in gas lines and fretting about the prospect of fuel rationing, thrifty compacts looked pretty good to plenty of Americans and the Nova fit the bill. This 1974 Chevrolet Nova SS was purchased new September 22, 1973, exactly 47 years prior to this description writing. Nova sales continued to surge as they had since the 1972 model year, approaching 400,000 in 1974 due to the oil crisis. For 1974, the Chevrolet Nova got a centered bow-tie grille emblem, as well as modified bumpers that added two inches to the length and helped cushion minor impacts. 1974 was the very last year of the 3rd-generation Nova, which had began its life in 1968. The aggressive stance on this Nova is owed to some larger but matching Federal blackwall rear tires, allowing for optimal grip to put power to the pavement. This 1974 Chevrolet Nova is tough to beat, with aggressive performance and an interior that not only looks great but is very comfortable. What we've got here sure is one sweet looking Chevy.
