1967 Nova SS 118 Vin 4 Speed Project

[Oliver]

I'm currently busy with my 1962 Belair 409, 1975 Blazer and 1972 K20 Suburban builds. This Nova is on the back burner and just seeing if someone is looking for one. I searched for a long time before finding a project version of this car. Really wanted a Marina Blue factory 4 speed 67. Seems like they have either all been built or 6 cylinder cars etc.

This is a factory marina blue, black bucket seat 4 speed, V8 car.
Original paint in the jambs and I believe the doors, fenders. Doors, fenders, hood, floor, roof and firewall are all exceptionally nice. Floor do not have any patches and do not need any rust repair. Trunk pan has some rust, small areas around rear window, and while the floors, rockers are exceptionally clean, there is one weird spot where the door jamb meets the rocker on the passenger side that has rust (I had a 66 that had this same issue for some reason). Cowl tag showing it is a 4 speed car and 118 VIN are intact. This is a fairly honest unmolested car.

It is a fairly complete car. Front and back seat, console, column, gauges, radio, glass, bumpers, grille, etc. The door panels, carpet and headliner were trashed so I tossed them. No engine or transmission.

History I have on the car is it was owned by a female out of the Birmingham area. She owned a series of car washes and for some reason the car was disassembled for paint several years ago. For whatever reason the car sat until the previous owner purchased it about 10 years ago. He fell ill and was moved to assisted living and I purchased the car locally from his son.

Car is located in North Alabama

Price is $14,500 Really looking to cash out due to being busy with other builds. Would consider trade up or down for nice 1973-2000 Trucks/SUV's.

Everything is for sale. That being said, the car is mid build and I'm not interested in taking a loss on it. I have a build thread over on 348-409.com. Solid western car. Ridetech coilover suspension with tubular control arms, factory posi, 409 currently being built by Lamar Walden's Shop in Atlanta,Tremec TKX 5 speed etc. Body is back on the chassis now.

I really dig that Nova. That’s a great price for a solid project.

Figured some folks would now want to see the Bubbletop. Plan is to leave the outside like it is and paint the firewall/dash with fresh ciadella interior. Should be a nasty little bugger that handles and breaks well. Engine was built by a shop on the West Coast but, now that I live 3 hours from Lamar's shop, I felt I had to take it to them for some magic.

Did the nova come with power steering or power brakes?
