This 1966 Chevrolet Chevy II Nova SS restomod has been in the seller’s family since new and is the recipient of a custom aesthetic and mechanical refurbishment. Power is provided by a new, blueprinted Stroker 383ci V8 from Summit Racing with push-button ignition, headers with electric cutouts, and a Griffin aluminum radiator, and it is paired with a Tremec 5-speed manual transmission with a narrowed 9" positraction rear end with 3.50 gears. Additional features include rack-and-pinion steering, a TCI subframe, 4-link rear suspension, Bear's Pro Street axles, Foose wheels, Vintage air, Pioneer sound, and much more. Finished in two-tone Atomic Orange and silver over a highly customized interior, this Nova SS is now offered with a clear California title in the seller’s name.
A two-tone scheme of Corvette Atomic Orange over silver was professionally applied using PPG 2-stage paint in 2017. In addition to the chrome trim and badges, other features consist of a 2" cowl steel hood, shaved door handles recessed filler cap, and dual exhaust.
Staggered-width 17" front and 18" rear Foose wheels are wrapped in 205/75 and 275/40 Toyo tires, respectively. Braking is managed by power 4-wheel discs with cross-drilled and slotted rotors, while handling has been upgraded with rack-and-pinion steering with 2" drop spindles.
The cabin has undergone extensive customization to include 4-bucket seating with a full-length center console and tan and orange leather upholstery with matching headliner and door cards. Amenities consist of push-button ignition, Vintage heat and air conditioning, a double din Pioneer AM/FM/CD/DVD head unit with speakers in the kick panels, and embroidered floor mats.
An aftermarket billet 3-spoke steering wheel with tilt frames new white-faced AutoMeter gauges consisting of a 150-mph speedometer and 10k tachometer. The digital odometer shows approximately 5k miles driven since the restoration. True chassis mileage is unknown.
The blueprinted 383ci stroker V8 is from Summit Racing and is reported to have approximately 100 miles on it since installation in February 2021. Performance enhancements include ceramic-coated headers with electric cutouts, a Griffin aluminum radiator, and a combination of billet aluminum components and stainless-steel braided cooling lines. Power is transferred to the rear wheels via a replacement Tremec 5-speed manual transmission and a narrowed 9" Ford rear end with positraction, 31-spline rear axles, and 3.50:1 gearing installed 18 months ago.
A TCI complete subframe was added, along with a 4-link rear and Flowmaster Hushpower mufflers with resonators. Additional photos showing the underside are available in the gallery and two short videos are available below.
