Project Cars For Sale has unearthed one awesome car for sale today! This 1964 Chevrolet Nova has been built into one mean looking altered wheelbase AF/X car! The seller reports that they built this altered wheelbase 1964 Chevrolet Nova during 2001. The Nova was cloned after the Bill Thomas “Novel Nova” which was featured in the March 1966 issue of Hot Rod and Popular Hot Rodding Magazines. This car was also featured in Hot Rod Magazine. It graced the pages of the May 2002 issue where it received six pages and 17 pictures featuring an article by world renowned Hot Rod Editor Steve Maganate. You can check out that feature in the online world at HotRod.com The front axle of this beast has been moved forward three inches, while the rear end has been moved a full eight inches to provide the mean altered stance that you see in the pictures here. The engine in this Nova is a 502 cubic inch Chevrolet big block which has been set back a full eight inches according to the HotRod.com article. Rounding out the drivetrain is a Jerico 4 speed shifted by a Hurst Shifter and a Strange 9 inch rearend. The seller reports that “I’ve made one full pass with the car and turned a 10.99 @ 123MPH on 8-1/2″ slicks. You can go down the highway at 75 with one hand on the wheel and it drives like a dream. You would never guess it has a straight axle until you look underneath.” Between the altered stance and that stack of injectors sticking out of the hood, this car would undoubtedly draw crowds at any cruise night or test and tune at the local drag strip. I have a love for nostalgic cars like this, and this 1964 Chevrolet Nova definitely makes my heart skip a beat and wish I had the cash to have it in my own garage. I had to share it with you all!
