Chevrolet Nova 396 V8 1971

General description : 396 V8, 5SPD TRANS, A/C, PWR STEER, GR8 COLORS IN/OUT, RUNS/DRIVES STRONG, SHARP

Quite accurate, very loaded, and absolutely powerful, this 1971 Chevrolet Nova SS Yenko Tribute is a terrific all-around package. So you can show off big block power with the upgraded five-speed all from the comfort of an A/C interior.
The appeal of this coupe is black and white, literally. The slick black paint is a modern application done over terrific panels, so it has the kind of shine that highlights all the best parts of this Nova. That means you easily see the aggressive front overhand, upgraded cowl hood, and subtle flying buttress in the rear. And this black is the perfect backdrop to highlight the full Yenko white striping package and all the correct badging. So you know people can see this is a tribute to Chevy's best performance dealer from blocks away! Top it all off with the right bright work pieces, like the mirror-like bumpers and the polished outer lip of the mean American Racing Torq Thrust wheel, and you have a slick and aggressive total package.
Inside, the black interior continues the muscle car appeal. You even get the correct Yenko headrests. But this one deviates a bit from the full Yenko program, and that's also why you'll absolutely love it. After all, the originals were kinda stripped of features, but this one doesn't skip out on the upgrades. Bucket seats, wood-like trim, and an AM/FM/CD stereo make this a nice place to spend some time. You even have cold-blowing air conditioning to keep you comfortable. But don't mistake this for a coddler. The three-spoke Chevy sports steering wheel and column-mounted tach will remind you this is a performance machine. And have you counted the gears on the stick shift yet?
A good Yenko car means a great big block under the hood, and this one doesn't disappoint. You have a 396 cubic-inch V8 filling in-between the fender walls. It has a very clean-n-mean presentation with the bright air topper and valve covers radiating from within the dark engine bay. And as you dig deeper, you see your favorite go-fast goodies, like a Holley double-pumper four-barrel carburetor, Edelbrock Performer RPM intake, and aluminum heads. And take some time with the details, because they added the right feature, like an electric fuel pump and an aluminum radiator with dual electric fans (it helps keep the car cool even if you're in traffic with the A/C pumping.) This full performance package feeds a dual exhaust with race mufflers to truly announce its power. You get the best control over this monster motor and its thunderous soundtrack thanks to the upgrade to a five-speed manual transmission. Plus, the power steering, front disc brakes, and wide BF Goodrich tires are welcomed features no matter if you're cruising the boulevard or making your mark on the asphalt.
This is the Yenko tribute that delivers the correct performance and gives you all the best comforts. A total package like this is likely not going to stick around very long, so don't miss out. Call now!

About Chevrolet Nova
The Chevy Nova is a compact car that was produced by Chevrolet from 1962 to 1979, and again from 1985 to 1988. While it was not initially marketed as a muscle car, it was offered with a range of powerful engines that made it a popular choice among enthusiasts.

In particular, the Nova SS (Super Sport) was a high-performance version of the car that was equipped with a range of performance upgrades, including larger engines, heavy-duty suspension, and upgraded brakes. The most notable engine options included the 327 cubic inch V8 and the 396 cubic inch V8, both of which produced impressive horsepower figures.

The Nova SS was a popular choice for drag racing, and it became a symbol of the burgeoning muscle car scene in the 1960s. It was known for its simple and lightweight design, which made it a popular choice among racers looking to modify and tune their cars for maximum performance.

Today, the Chevy Nova is still a popular classic car, with enthusiasts drawn to its simple and stylish design, as well as its impressive performance capabilities. While it may not be as well-known as some of the more iconic muscle cars from the era, the Nova remains a significant part of American automotive history and a beloved classic among collectors and enthusiasts.
