With its sleek, dark style and iconic muscle car stance, this 1970 Chevrolet Nova is the kind of classic that commands attention. But beyond its striking presence, this Nova is all about being a dependable V8 cruiser that’s ready to hit the road from day one.
Few cars wear black as well as this generation of the Nova. Its sharp body lines and well-defined creases are perfectly showcased by a glossy finish that balances classic charm with a touch of intimidation. This isn’t a trailer queen — it’s a driver’s car that’s meant to be enjoyed on the open road. Subtle SS-inspired touches like the vented hood trim hint at added muscle, while the staggered 17/18-inch American Racing Torq Thrust wheels give it a modern, aggressive stance. But it’s not just about looking tough — the quality shines through in the details. Chrome wraparound bumpers, a wide front grille, full-length side trim, clean weather-stripping, and complete Chevy badging present a classic that’s as clean as it is cool. If you’re looking for a strong foundation to build your dream Super Sport-style Nova, this one’s already set up for success.
Step inside, and you’ll find a full black interior that reinforces this Nova’s no-nonsense appeal. It’s clean, complete, and thoughtfully put together to create a space that feels driver-focused. From the plush upholstery to the smooth headliner, every surface has a quality feel. Details like clear gauges, fresh carpeting, and working dome lights show off the level of care that went into this classic. For a sporty touch, the upgraded three-spoke Chevy sports steering wheel offers a better grip and a more commanding feel on the road.
Under the hood is a tried-and-true 350 cubic-inch small-block V8 — a cornerstone of Chevy’s muscle car legacy. This engine already has some flair, with polished Edelbrock valve covers, a matching air cleaner, and Chevy’s signature orange engine block. More than just looks, it’s built to run strong, with newer components like the alternator and an aluminum radiator to keep things running cool. The dual exhaust system features full-length headers, giving it a throaty rumble that muscle car fans will love. With plenty of aftermarket support for small-block Chevys, you have an open invitation to unlock even more power if you choose. For now, it’s already a fun cruiser with a smooth-shifting three-speed automatic transmission and modern sport tires that provide extra grip for a more enjoyable ride.
This 1970 Chevrolet Nova is more than just a cool-looking classic. It has the style, substance, and solid fundamentals to be an awesome weekend driver right now. And if you’re dreaming of building something more powerful or custom, this Nova provides the perfect platform. Clean, complete, and ready to go — call today and make it yours!
