1976 Chevrolet Nova Concourse review from North America
"Love it"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Starter, alternator way after 100,000 miles.
General comments?
My mom bought this car used with around 30k on it when I was about 10. When I was 16, I took it over as my driver... I raced, I raced, I loaded it with teens, I wore it out.
My mom sold it to my brother in-law when I was about 21, and he drove it from CA to FL, and then 3 years later he drove it back and I bought it back from him. I then drove it for another few years with trouble free use.
I LOVED that car. Never had any major trouble with it. The power was insane, parts were cheap and easy to fix... we put over 200,000 miles on it and loved it the whole time.
