The fourth-generation Chevrolet Nova debuted in 1975 with updated styling, improved ride quality, and a more spacious interior. This 1976 Nova Concours Coupe has been extensively modified, featuring a 427ci V8 engine paired with a 5-speed manual transmission and a limited-slip differential. Finished in Hugger Orange over a custom lightweight interior, the build includes a cowl induction hood, LED lighting, lowered suspension, 17” US Mags wheels, Wilwood disc brakes, MSD ignition, a Holley carburetor, Hooker exhaust headers, ProFlow mufflers, and more. This custom Nova is now being offered for auction by its seller out of Texas.

This Nova is said to have been refinished in the iconic GM shade of Hugger Orange and customized with black and chrome accents. Modifications include a cowl induction hood, LED projection lights, 427 badging, a lowered suspension, red Wilwood brake calipers, and 17” US Mags wheels wrapped in 225/45 front and 235/50 rear Michelin Pilot Sport tires. Window tint has also been applied. Minor paint chips are noted, and detailed images are provided in the gallery.

The cabin has been modified with black cloth and vinyl-upholstered aftermarket front bucket seats with a matching center console incorporating storage and cupholders. Equipment also includes a wood-rimmed steering wheel mounted to a tilt column, AutoMeter instrumentation, a Hurst shifter, Chevrolet bow tie-branded floor mats, and an aftermarket stereo system with a Kenwood Bluetooth-capable head unit and a trunk-mounted Kicker amplifier and subwoofer.

Power has been upgraded with a 427ci V8 engine, which was rated at 601 HP and 545 lb-ft of torque during a dynamometer test in 2019. The rear wheels are driven through a Tremec 5-speed manual transmission and a Ford 9″ rear end said to have been fitted with a 4.30:1 Detroit TrueTrac limited-slip differential.
