Formerly owned by famed Baseball player and well known collector Reggie Jackson, this Novas history is nothing short of a Cinderella story. After being parked for good just down the block from the Reggies practice facility in California, Jackson passed it every day for years. Once he inquired and discovered the rare options package this car had, he purchased it and restored it to its current glory. Presented in Regal Red with contrasting black interior, this Nova is in like new condition in and out. The exterior is immaculate, including all britework, lenses, and window glass. Inward the interior keeps with the same theme and is in excellent condition including the bucket seats, door panels, dash, gauges, and carpet. Features on this Nova include bucket seats, SS console with the floor shift, and an AM/FM radio with a rear mounted antenna.
Power comes from an L79 327 V8 which produces 350 horsepower and 360 pounds of torque. The 327 is backed by a factory ordered M20 4 Speed transmission and a 12 bolt rear with posi-traction and 3.73 gears. Being the little sibling in the big body family of Chevys, this little Nova was born to run, and that it does! This Nova starts easily and settles into an ominous rumble, hinting at the trouble in store for the guy in the next lane. Shifts are tight and crisp and throttle response is quick, it is an absolute gas to drive!
This classic muscle car icon is certainly eye catching, and is known to be one of the fastest cars of its era. TLD has just completed a thorough detail to make sure that this Nova meets our strict standards. It truly must be seen to be appreciated. Dont miss you chance to own this rare piece of Nova history, so stop in to see how nice this L79 Nova SS really is, down to The Last Detail!!
