We will start off with the exterior of this Nova. As you can see
the body on it is all rock solid and has excellent fit of the
doors, hood, and trunk. Down the sides are laser straight and it's
clear that countless hours were spent getting every panel prepped
and installed. The body is covered in the Olympic Gold that was
redone in the Base Coat Clear Coat. All the jams look amazing and
they did an excellent job top and bottom. It's been wet sanded,
buffed, and polished to a gorgeous shine that's slick as ribbon.
The Olympic Gold is the factory option and it's accented by the
Factory Optioned Dark Brown Vinyl roof. This car has an amazing
compliment of trim options with the Fender Louvers, Lower Fender
Door Quarter molding, and the Rocker Quarter Molding. You'll also
notice that it has the window and drip rail moldings. Every piece
of Chrome and Stainless on this Nova is like new with a brilliant
shine. All the glass has been redone in this Nova along with the
seals and weather stripping. To finish off the look it's sitting on
a set of 14" Super Sport Wheels with Firestone Red Line Tires.
Next, we will look at the interior of this Super Sport. On the
inside it follows suite with the exterior as it's done in the
correct factory optioned Black Interior that has all been redone.
It features the Custom Bench Seat that looks amazing along with the
rear bench seat. This '69 has the correct seat belts with the
shoulder belts that store at the headliner. Speaking of the
Headliner you'll notice that it has an excellent fit along with the
sail panels and that the dome light is working as it should.
Looking at the dash you can see it looks amazing as well with only
8 Miles showing since the restoration was completed. It comes with
Tilt Wheel and the SS Steering Wheel. All the under-dash lights are
working, and new carpet was installed after being Dynamatted. This
Nova has the floor mounted Four Speed Shifter. Inside the trunk you
can see that it's a period correct detail with the splatter paint,
spare and jack. You can also see that jams look excellent and solid
with new weather stripping installed.
Finally, we will get to the heartbeat of this Chevrolet. Under the
hood you'll notice all the time and detail that went into making
this restoration be as close to an identical representation of this
car off the line as possible. It has all the correct marking and
even has the GM stamped Hoses. It features the Matching Number L78
396 375 HP engine with JH Suffix Code. It's set up with the correct
