    The 68-72 Nova were easily the best looking economy cars of the era.

    That's a beautiful and rare '68 Nova. I love it. All I can say is that if I owned it I would NEVER, EVER, park it in a parking garage at the mall. No matter how far you park it away from the mall door you'll come back an hour later and there would be cars wedged in a hand's width away on both sides and a couple of nice new dents in the sides from where careless people threw their doors open right into it. Been there. Done that.

      @@jamesyoast5425 yeah, I will. Mistakes happen sometimes. However, it's not my fault, the poster above stated that this was a Chevy II in the first place. Though, I do know the lineup started as a 3rd gen Nova in '68. I kind of overlooked the info. However, in my opinion a Chevy II _is_ a Nova; I'm just sticking to that name just so I can't confuse others with the Chevy II name. It's a Nova and that's it. Is that fair enough?

      @tvoovm7254 Před 4 lety +7

      @@jamesyoast5425 well, it looks like we were wrong. The poster was right this whole time. After I did some research, the Chevy II Name was originally made from 1962-1968. The 1968 Nova has a Chevy II name badge on the front hood of the vehicle (proof is at 0:24). Just to clarify, some 1968 Chevy Novas have the Chevy II Badge while other '68 models do not. In 1969 the name badge of the Chevy II was dropped and it was replaced with a Nova name badge, changing the entire model name from a Chevy II to a Chevy Nova. Think twice before telling someone to do their research, smartass.

      we do take rack and pinion steering for granted :) No, seriously, you can buy steering boxes with better ratios--my '68 4-4-2 is 2.7 turns lock to lock. But its classic power steering--numb. And power discs that launch you thru the window the first time you leave the driveway, until you remember how to touch the pedal.
