Perfect, 1963 Chevy II / Nova with very few miles on ground up restoration. No expense spared in building this car, with all of the right parts/modifications and lots of special touches. You can't come close to building this for the asking price.

If you're looking for one of the nicest Gen 1 Chevy II / Nova's in the country, this is it. Turn key, needs nothing. Perfect inside and out. Body, paint, engine bay and interior are all show quality.

Meticulous, organized, binders with full documentation of build with specs, receipts, etc.

Thanks, yep...straight as an arrow. Paint is perfect too.

I got the 2004r to make it more of a cruiser.

Never dyno'd it - talking with the builder, we've guessed it's got to be right around 400hp.

Never cared about the power to be honest. My 700hp 911 is the fast car, this is the cruiser.
