1975 Chevrolet Nova S review from North America
"Restore one!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Really just a battery cable, and it leaks tons of tranny fluid, but that's because the guy that had it before put in a different dip stick.
General comments?
I bought the car to restore, it only has 28000 miles, but it was pretty rough from sitting and the interior was rotted, so I gutted the whole thing and I am going to put some nice custom features such as a billet grille and some 22" rims.
I am gonna get rid of the dummy lights and buy a rally gauge kit. I basically found a good running car and I am gonna put 6000 into it to make it nice. I am going to paint it maroon like it should be and just have it as a classic muscle car. Sure beats a little beat up 93 Corsica that was for sure a piece.
