1967 Nova Parts and Restoration Information

1967 nova

The 1967 Nova was the last year in the second generation of Chevrolet’s X-body platform.

Even though the body and mechanics stayed the same, many safety improvements were made to the 1967 Chevy Nova to keep in line with Government-mandated automobile safety regulations. This included an energy-absorbing steering column and safety steering wheel, soft interior parts (armrests, sun visors, and dash pads), redesigned instrument panel knobs, and front shoulder seat belt anchors.

The SuperSport model also saw some changes with a new black grille and SuperSport wheel covers. While the Nova underwent slight changes it saw a major sales drop as the newly released Chevy Camaro stole Nova’s spotlight as the new American muscle car.
