A lot of people dont realize what a drag ride those make they hook up so well with a couple little tricks. Love it thanks for posting.

My high school car was a 75 Nova and I have looked forever for one to tinker with! I had N50 15's on the back E60 14's on the front with the 262 underneath the hood... but back to looking for one....there are none out there! you can find the rust piles that are left from them. Great video and thank you for sharing!! you got to talking about the motor feeling bigger, I changed out the intake and put a 4bbl on here and she would fly, man the memories....

Just bought a 76 Nova medalist. Mint condition, all original. I'm gonna keep it that way. Great video sir

Nice Nova Isaac. It is the type of car that Grandma would go to church in and to the store and let it set the rest of the time. You really have a jewel there. And the bible came with it. I would say you have been blessed. Lucky, Lucky, Lucky.

I know that yellow. Back in the late 70's I owned a 1973 Vega. The front fenders rusted out (yes boys and girls, back in the day, if you lived north of the mason/dixon line, you could watch Vegas rusting). I replaced them with fenders from a Canary Yellow vega parts car. My very yellow fenders on my very green Vega made it easy to find in mall parking lots.
That Nova sure looks like an ex-government vehicle. Long time since I heard a car go by sounding more like an air hose than a motorized vehicle :-) Strangely it brings back good memories.

My first car was a 1975 Nova! I miss that car. I sold it in 1999. The body was rusted out, but the engine ran great. 275, 000 miles!

I had a 75 Nova with a straight six, really easy to work on and a lot of fun.

Got this straight out of Grandma's garage...cane style umbrella and classic horrible seat cover still in the back lol . I'm sure the bible under the seat was really what the car was used for church and going to the grocery store...nice find !

From Leo: Power steering was included when you got a V8. The automatic was a separate option. I ordered my red 1976. Walked in wanting a base 6 cylinder car, drove out with a V8 Auto, PS, PB, Air conditioned car with AM/FM. Salesman talked me into a better car, and he was right, it was nicer. Mine was a full wheel cover car, where I lived people would steal any styled wheels anyway. Was a great car. I wish I still had it.

So cool that you got one of these. I have the Oldsmobile version of this car with a rebuilt Olds 355 with a cam, headers, and a 3000 stall converter. These are very underrated cars and a lot of fun.

LOVE IT!!! I had just graduated high school in '73 and I remember seeing one just like it at the local chevy dealership. Same color of darker yellow. Definitely a keeper.

My first car was a two door 75 nova like that, It started off with a 250 straight six, but I picked up a an unmarked Nova cop car and dropped that cop motor 350 in my two door. Second fastest car in the school parking lot. Second only to my buddy's 66 k-code mustang gt. My second car was a 78 two door straight six with a three on the tree. Suprisingly quick, especially off the line. Great torque!

[jasondonaho]

I had 2 78's!! One 4 door and a 2 door. I loved them both.

[johncooper]

I had a 72 Nova way back in the day. I was young and dumb, and sold it. I like the 75. I would drive. And keep it.

Went with my father to pick ours up in Camden NJ in 1975. My Dad ordered a 350 with posi rear four door AM radio.

My first car was a 75 in 89, had it for 18 years. The heart of it beats on in my 72 C20.

I had an olive green color of the exact same make and model. Mine had the straight six. Great car. Had mine in 90.
