Ok NOVA gurus, could this be a GIBB Nova??
Not to good at telling the Nova's apart sorry. What year is this one/ Notice it says it has a L78/Turbo 400 tranny https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/smile.gif

Assuming it's a factory BB car, that's a 1970 model.

Ill have to agree looking at the front Turn signals and the Nova Script on the sides of the car

Re: Ok NOVA gurus, could this be a GIBB Nova??
The 68's had the supersport script at the bottom along the rockers...right?

Like I said, Novas are not really my bag but then i started to look at it and saw some differences between that car and the ones on the feature car page. Still had to post it to make sure. Didnt know about the NO V/Tops for the 68 COPO though
Thanks Kim |

At least one Gibb Nova had a vinyl top. Would be fun to find it. Also had an aluminum spoiler,stinger hood,Dick Harrell prepared 454/450hp to boot.

Where is that pic from? Looks like a non-SS '70 with Strippers.

Re: Ok NOVA gurus, could this be a GIBB Nova??
I agree......looks like a '70. Might be a Gibb Nova, but not one of the 50 COPO cars.

Re: Ok NOVA gurus, could this be a GIBB Nova??
The picture of the '70 Gibb Nova is from the April 1970 Car Craft. Quote-"Harrell had taken delivery of a '70 Chevy II and El Camino from his partner and racing associate, Fred Gibb of Fred Gibb Chevrolet, in La Harpe, Illinois." Article is written by Ro McGonegal, with a best time with ucapped Cyclone headers, and 8" M&H slicks of 11.89/116.92. Almost as fast as my car, however, Herb did better times with a 302 18 months earlier.
I forgot to mention the Strippers, good eye. Neat combo of add-ons. This is a historic article regarding the Gibb/Harrell venture. I'm sure many have a copy. I do not know if this car still exists. Probably sitting in some garage, stored for 37 years untouched. It's color was Gold. |
