1976 Chevrolet Nova SS review from North America
"The coolest ride money can buy"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
When I bought it it was pretty rusty, but that's not the car's fault! It sat for years, but started right up for me.
My starter went.
The dashboard got a bit rusty.
A couple of holes through the trunk.
General comments?
I loved that car more than life itself! Fast, loud, great looking, comfortable. Unfortunately the insurance has gotten a bit high for me so last month I sold her.
My Nova was the best car I have ever driven. It handled really well for a car that big and powerful, and being a young female, it was really great to win every time I raced it on the street! It had a lot of character.
