Chevrolet: Nova SS

This is a 1970 Chevrolet Nova SS L78 396 / 375 HP. Forest Green # 48 on Green interior. 4 speed manual. This unit is a numbers matching unit 375bhp. 402 cu. in. L-78 V8 engine with four-barrel carburetor. four-speed manual transmission. independent front suspension. live rear axle. and power front disc brakes. This car is in excellent condition and we always encourage an inspection and we can definitely accommodate one to our out of town or US buyers at their expense if needed. When the Chevrolet Nova SS debuted in 1964. it targeted a very specific market. The Chevy II. upon which it was based. was a rather staid. inexpensive. entry-level form of transportation. When Chevrolet decided to offer a V8 engine in the Chevy II. however. the car suddenly catered to an entirely different car buyer one concerned with both performance and value. As the Nova SS became increasingly successful. Chevrolet adopted all of the engines available for the Camaro. including the 375-horsepower. 396 cubic inch V8 engine. Throughout the 1960s. the Nova continued to enjoy a variety of horsepower options but one of the most memorable arrived for 1970 when Chevrolet introduced a new version of the now-legendary 396. The engine was enlarged to 402 cubic inches. although Chevrolet still called it the 396 or Turbo Jet 400 for name recognition and marketing purposes. Despite its relative affordability. however. just 3. 65 of over 250. 00 Nova's produced ever carried this power plant for 1970. The Nova presented here is one such SS example equipped with this 375-horsepower 396 big block and a four-speed transmission (engine pad stamping code CKO). The dark green metallic paint is absolutely beautiful. expertly applied with a glass-like surface finish. In fact. the fit of the body panels is likewise excellent. as is the re-chromed bright work. polished stainless steel. and glass. Equipped with a green vinyl bench seat. the interior is highly presentable. With such features as a four-speed transmission and an optional factory AM radio. a powerful Nova SS such as this warrants further enjoyment. While its exceptional exterior finish adds greatly to its presence. its inherent value lies under the hood. Vehicle was previously registered in the USA and can easily be imported/exported back to the USA with all proper documentation. ENG Automotive Group is a Ontario.
