Ken, you are so negative. Don't you know Chevrolet was so fond of the Nova that the often designed special engines for it? That's right Corvettes, Camaros, Chevelles, Impalas, Trucks, could not use these special engines. These cars were part of the SHAPC (special head and piston combination) program. I suppose the "Super car" community will also turn their head when when the prototype for these special cars turns up. That's right folks you heard it here first, serial no. 0001 the first L89 Corvair recently discovered after sitting undisturbed for over 40 years in a latrine stall of area 51. Why else would the government not want the general public in there? I can't wait for you guys try and explain this piece of GM history away. You should never say never guys, especially you Ken.

Have to admit when I read the above as part of the preview of the thread, and before I saw Ken's link, I THOUGHT we were getting ready to see a post on a 4 cyl. Nova.
I have only seen a couple, but they are out there.

As for the black one... yes, it is beat to death. It is a really nice looking well done car. Anyone here ever get to scrutinize the P.O.P.?

I'm sure glad these cars land softly when they fall out of the sky.........otherwise they could get damaged from the Fall.......And......nobody would like to see a Super Dooper Double Super Secret Car get damaged........

There was a 4cyl Nova on Phoenix craigslist a few weeks ago.

4 cylinder Nova now you are talking about something cool. I have always want to do a 4cyl and put a small turbo on it with a m/20 4sp trans. The only reason for the turbo would be to give it enough HP to pull an AC compressor.
