1966 CHEVROLET NOVA II CUSTOM COUPE

Details

Finished in Charcoal Gray, this 1966 Chevy II Nova Pro-Touring coupe is a complete custom build by premier builder Artistic Customs out of Jasper, OR. Countless hours went into this no-expense-spared custom build. Powering this Pro-Touring Nova II is a new GM Performance Supercharged LT4 crate engine putting out 650hp and 650 ft/lbs of torque with a Chevrolet Performance engine control system. Power is sent to the rear wheels via a heavy-duty TREMEC T56 6-speed manual transmission. The engine has been outfitted with a Wegner front-drive system, Wegner custom billet valve covers and Ultimate stainless-steel headers. The Pro-Touring treatment includes Detroit Speed suspension, QUADRALink in the rear and hydro-formed full front frame fitted with tubular upper and lower control arms, DSE/JRI aluminum body coilover shocks with 'Detroit Tuned' valving, as well as power rack & pinion steering and Baer 14-inch disc brakes providing stopping power. This custom Nova rides on 19-inch Schott Performance Cover-Loc wheels in the rear and 18-inch in the front, all wrapped in Diamondback classic red line tires. The custom red

leather interior was done by award-winning Jon Lind and features Speed Hut gauges and Vintage Air climate control. Key customizations include a notched and smoothed firewall allowing the engine to sit further back in the car for improved weight distribution, a custom-fabricated air intake integrated into the DSE inner fenders, a handmade filler panel between the core support and grille, and a custom-fabricated exhaust system. It also features DSE mini-tubs as well as Fesler hood hinges.
