Re: new guy with a 66 nova

If it runs good and doesn't overheat...just enjoy it, I know I would. I had three 67 Novas. A 2 door coupe (non-SS), a 2 door sedan (post), and an SS ( a rustbucket ) http://hometown.aol.com/a1supersport...page/auto.html

Congratulations on your new toy!! I just bought me a new toy also. A 1966 Chevy II Nova 406ci Turbo 350 Posi out of Lenexa KS. It is being shipped as we speak. I am hoping it will be here Sat or Sun. Sounds to me like you are enjoying new ride; I have had 2 other 64' novas in the past...an SS with a 6cyl/glide and a non-SS with a 350/TH350. Both Blue I miss them and broke down and bought another. Will write later.

Cool nova 1966 chevyII 28k rare mint condition

I have a factory original Chevy II Nova, with 28k original miles, white with red interior. Its got a straight 6, 230c.i., shift on the column. I need a back dash panel to replace one with holes cut in it for speakers. This car is pristine with no modifications. It will be for sale, any idea of what it is worth? Any idea of where to get this replacement part? Appreciate any feedback!

Re: new guy with a 66 nova

Nice Dude. I have a Chevy 2 Nova 1968 250ci shift on column. Right now Im using it for school travle. But once I get out of college and save enough money. im planning on dropping a 383 with a 350TH tranny. Does anyone know if I should chnage the drive shaft and the rear axle or drivetrain, just becuase their is going to be more torque and HP envolved?
