Runs and drives awesome! A good honest 1978 Chevy Nova. It's an extremely rare example ( less than 50 ) special ordered with the following: *Triple Black *( Rare ) 4 Spd manual transmission *350ci V8 engine *hatchback. Less than 10 currently registered with this factory build sheet. During our parents 45 years of ownership they've never came across another Nova with these spec's. Father worked for General motors for 52 years and this was his baby. No expense was spared, always up to date on scheduled maintenance. The car starts up every time and is super reliable. All turn signals, brake lights, interior exterior lights in working order. The Chevy has new dual exhaust. You can hear the muscle car attitude, rumble and the head turning presence you want. Just had it serviced at Left Coast Garage with receipt $2560. It's turn-key ready and completely street legal. It needs nothing and can be driven daily with confidence. The body is original still present are the factory pinstriping. Present with original patina or restore to show quality. Paint has oxide and could use a nice buff and wax. History: Parents purchased new, health declined and both passed away within a year. We inherited the car and commenced the following work order.

All glass shows well, no cracks, chrome bumpers, trim, mirriors looks to be in great shape. Back quarter windows open close and lock. Being an unrestored classic there are expected imperfections, which are consistent with a car of it's age ( 48 years ). It's overall in very nice condition. Comes with an extra set of 15 inch wheels and beauty rings. I have the complete original factory trim. Clean title Washington State car with collector plates. This is a rare survivor of this era. Reason I'm selling. I'm disabled, getting late in years and unable to drive it. A nice one of a kind entry to car shows or weekend cruising. I would like it to go to a deserving home with a heated garage. We based the price on condition, rarity, and cost we paid for mechanical restoration. It's alot of car for the money. I can throw in 2 new Recarro style seats and brand new center console at full price $9980. Phone number show contact info
