Kevin D’s 1972 Nova

Built From The Ground Up

Kevin D’s 1972 Nova

This car (a true SS Nova) was purchased by Kevin’s father and he started building it with him. Unfortunately, he was diagnosed with cancer and passed. Kevin finished it and got it where it is now.

This car means a lot to Kevin because it was his father’s. There is even a picture of him hanging from the mirror so he can “ride” in it every time Kevin takes it out for a drive.

Under the hood of Kevin’s Nova is a 383 stroker, attached to a 4-spd Muncie rock crusher transmission. It has 4:11 gears, disc brakes, all-new chrome, and a new interior. It also has a touchscreen radio with cameras, new glass, traction bars, chrome everything on the engine, electric cut-outs, ceramic headers, and Flowmaster mufflers with turn-downs.

Kevin’s future plans for the Nova include a/c, a new chrome power steering pump, some chrome pulleys, new gauges, and a trunk enclosure!

"They take the time to answer questions, are very helpful to find parts, their prices are good, shipping is fast, and they are a well known company to shop with!"

-Kevin D
