1978 Chevrolet Nova custom review from North America
"Great car for little money"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I was in a crash and the rear qouarter panal is in really bad shape.
I have had to replace the carb. and the valve covers.
It has to sit and warm up for a long time in the winter.
General comments?
This car is the fastest car I have and the most reliable. I wouldn't trade it for anything. The cabin is in great shape for what year is was made and how long it sat in a barn.
