The Chevy Nova is one of the great blank canvases of the muscle car world. Compact, lightweight, and endlessly customizable, it has been transformed into everything from numbers-matching big-block survivors to supercharged pro-touring monsters. We combed through the current Motorious marketplace and pulled the ten coolest Novas for sale right now, ranging from a rare Yenko Deuce to an 850-horsepower LSA restomod. Here they are, counting up to the wildest of the bunch.
10. 1970 Chevrolet Nova Yenko Deuce LT1 350/360 HP
One of just 175 Yenko Deuce Novas built, this numbers-matching example is a genuine piece of Don Yenko history. It pairs the solid-lifter LT1 350 rated at 360 horsepower with a four-speed manual, and it still wears its Fathom Blue paint, Yenko stripes, hood tach, and Firestone Wide Ovals. Documented on the Yenko Deuce VIN list with its original Protect-O-Plate, it is the rarest car on this list at $45,995.
9. 1966 Chevrolet Nova SS Pro Street
A genuine 117-VIN Super Sport, this Marina Blue Nova blends classic muscle car looks with a street-fighter attitude. It rides on 15-inch Weld Racing wheels with skinny front runners and meaty Nitto rubber out back, and its 355-cubic-inch V8 has roughly 1,000 miles on a fresh rebuild. It is a real-deal SS with pro-street presence for $76,000.
8. 1969 Chevrolet Nova Pro Street
Finished in aggressive blackout paint and backed by a six-speed Richmond gearbox, this pro-street Nova is built for people who like their muscle cars loud and mean. The sinister stance and sharp finish give it serious presence, and at $76,995 it is ready to hit the street fast.
7. 1968 Chevrolet Nova
This one is not for the faint of heart. A supercharged 572-cubic-inch Dart V8 topped with an 8-71 blower puts more than 1,000 horsepower behind the clean first-generation lines. The deep, glossy red finish stays true to the classic body while the drivetrain promises pure street-and-strip violence, all for $83,900.
6. 1963 Chevrolet Nova Chevy II SS Restomod
A complete build done right, this early Chevy II wears captivating Aqua Mist Poly paint over a modern 6.0-liter V8 and 4L60E automatic. It shows just 16,007 miles since the rebuild and adds fresh chrome trim, American Racing wheels, and subtle SS emblems that hint at the modern small-block rumble underneath. It is offered at $84,995.
5. 1972 Chevrolet Nova SS
A factory-born Super Sport documented with its build sheets, sales contract, and Protect-O-Plate, this Nova received a nut-and-bolt rotisserie restoration. Repainted in its original Flame Orange and upgraded with a ZZ430 crate motor, it combines documented provenance with show-quality bodywork. It is one of the best restorations we have seen, priced at $89,998.
4. 1972 Chevrolet Nova Pro Touring
Painted a gorgeous burgundy metallic that looks like hard candy, this LS-powered pro-tourer pairs a laser-straight body with a cowl hood, carbon fiber front spoiler, and Holley Retrobright LED headlights. An upgraded chassis, custom suspension, and big brakes make it as fun to drive as it is to look at, and the wheels may be the star of the show. Yours for $113,998.
3. 1969 Chevrolet Nova SS L78 396/375
A true time capsule from Chevrolet's golden muscle car era, this highly original SS shows just 3,607 miles and wears its mostly original LeMans Blue paint. At its heart is the matching-numbers L78 396/375-horsepower big-block, one of the most coveted engines of the era, backed by an M20 four-speed and riding on correct red line tires and steel wheels. This preservation-quality survivor is $115,900.
2. 1967 Chevrolet Nova
Finished in striking Marina Blue over grey, this second-generation Nova radiates vintage charm with a serious performance backbone. According to the owner, the small block features forged internals, a Comp Cams 268H camshaft, Church Boys headers, and an Edelbrock Performer RPM Air Gap intake, backed by a 700R4 automatic. It is a beautifully presented driver at $138,000.
1. 1966 Chevrolet Nova SS 850 HP LSA Supercharged Pro-Touring Restomod
The wildest Nova on our list is this no-compromise restomod built around a custom supercharged LSA making 700 wheel horsepower and 850 at the crank, backed by a 4L75E automatic. A Lingenfelter cam, carbon fiber valve covers, a Billet Wagner serpentine kit, and dual electric radiators fill the engine bay, blending head-turning classic styling with genuinely brutal modern performance. It tops the list at $149,999.
