1972 SS Nova
 

Not a supercar but a great driver. Guy I bought my Monte from had this and offered it to me. Black/Black /350-4speed ss car with air. Have buildsheet. Was $2400 plus $1600 in options! Pretty nice driver. He put in a ZZ3 motor and rebuilt it to ZZ4 specs. Chambered exhaust. Never seen that on a Nova. Has added vintage heat/air. Nice tight car.

Nice, that thing looks Mean,,,

Re: 1972 SS Nova
 

Chambered exhaust is great on the nova. We actually did that back in the very early 70's. Got everything from GM cheap in those days.
That is a nice nova. Worth having and fun I bet!

Re: 1972 SS Nova
 

Thanks Sam. It is pretty fun to drive. Just in time for Schoneys Nova show right down the street from me this weekend!

Re: 1972 SS Nova
 

I will be running conventional dual exhaust with 2 1/2&quot; muffler outlets -- where can I get the tail pipes that dump behind the tire like on this beautiful Nova? Thanks ... TAZ [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/burnout.gif[/img]

Re: 1972 SS Nova
 

I looked at the exhaust when I had it on the rack. Those are actually just chrome extensions held on with the 3 mounting screws, and pipe is angled, not straight cut.

Very nice Dave! Congrats...

Re: 1972 SS Nova
 

Does the Nova have headers with the chambered exhaust, or manifolds? Dave Belk? Any relation to Dennis Belk of Iowa?

Re: 1972 SS Nova
 

Hi Bill. Just manifolds. Yes, Dennis is my father. Dave

Dave....I believe I bought my 68 Chevelle from your dad in April of 2002. A friend and I pulled my trailer out to Bettendorf, Iowa from NJ, after the ebay purchase and brought it home. Then I did a year long frame off restoration on it. I still have it today. It's going to the Md Chevelle show this weekend. It's one of the best purchases I've ever made.

Nice! I'll have to show him the pic. He restored 55-57 Chevys my whole childhood. Career auto mechanic, like his father was. His brothers ( family of 14! ) are into antique cars / tractors as well.

Re: 1972 SS Nova
 

Thanks Dave! Like I said...I love Novas...and yours looks great!

Re: 1972 SS Nova

WOW... stunning car. beautiful color

Re: 1972 SS Nova
 

Question. Want to put a CD player / kick panel speakers in car. There are 6 X 9 speakers in package tray already. Is there an option / kit out there that does not require cutting of the dash? I have seen stock looking radios with a CD player in the glove compartment. Good idea? Going in circles over this. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/smile.gif[/img] Any help appreciated. Dave

Other than the Glovebox, hiding CD/Radio units inside factory Tissue Dispensers is the cleanest way I've seen.
Here's a few pics below, the lower ones from this thread...

As for the kick panels, it may be best save yours if good and find others to modify?
Good luck!

Thats a good idea! Thanks. As for the kick panels they do make molded ones. Dave
