My favorite color on this '72 Nova Super Sport. It's surprising the exhaust doesn't let that 454 engine roar out the back end like it's supposed to.

That Nova is so badass it does 40MPH in park with the engine off!

This car is set up nicely! Already has a lot of the hard work done! Sub-frame connectors and such.

Nice Big block Nova. Check the fan switch or thermostat if equipped. I've had the switches on the fans crap out. The fan motor itself usually has a loud bearing squeal before it dies. I suspect rain water and car washing into the grille kills the bearings.

It's so nice to see a car with working gauges, those modifications look pretty professionally done but I have never seen a shifter angled like that, but if it works, what a great sound, love that colour, great video.

Nice nova BUT that floor shifter had my OCD $hitting itself😂😂😂

Nothing like the sound of a big block Chevy they are a little notorious of using a little oil if you really get into then but they are really worth the money pretty ride.

I love the fact that they put traction bars on a dog legged rear end lol.

Thanks for posting . Cool car It would make a nice cruiser. . I know a camera Mic makes ever engine sound like their coming apart . But the driver side valve train was way louder than the passenger side . The paint and body issues I could live with. But selling it with shifter , engine smoke / valve train noise , speedometer etc problems is a pass and a no no in my book. Like most people I would happily pay a little more for a mechanically sound car I didn't have to worry about !

"speedometer is working" ... Literally stuck at 40MPH lol .... Awesome car though .. Had a 76 Nova that I miss from 24 years ago

At 51 year' s old she has a few bumps, but very good shape for her age. This car will be someone's sweet hart one day and I do think at that price she may be yours's .Winner winner Elk dinner. Nice all the way around and that is no lie.

It needs a little love. But a great looking and sounding Nova. I love the first part of every week. I look forward to Monday for the start of these test drive videos. You've done a great job making this channel outstanding! Great work Nick!

Thank you

Nick it's so good to see in this day to have a person as honest as you are God Bless 😇❤️.

God I love this car. You guys ALWAYS have the best inventory I swear. One day I'm going to get something from you guys. Let me land this new job first lol

They aways seem to have some of the greatest looking cars love❤️ the nova pretty color.wish it was mine.

I'm an old hot rodder. I'm 54. This car has some really good parts. The transmission seems to be well built and definitely the rear suspension with the 12 bolt and the slide link traction bars, the quality of the exhaust et cetera is all really good stuff. Yet a few things make me scratch my head. I'm not gonna call those things out because I'm not one to do that regarding another man's vehicle. Let me just say this card does have some nice bits and pieces that are quite expensive and they are also well-thought-out. But the engine sounds a bit tame for the caliber of transmission And differential and Related suspension parts. If it had a big lumpy Cam and some aluminum heads I would be all over it . On the flip side it seems like a very nice driver And not being so rowdy could definitely be a blessing for many You may be aren't that mechanically inclined or don't want something absolutely wickedly fast. Don't get me wrong this car appears quite happy for the average person

Bet ya any money that it had a decent engine in it, maybe a crate engine and the previous owner took it out and stuck this boat anchor from an RV in there.

@John Wick I was thinking like maybe it had a great 502 in it or something Much more stout than the current engine. I don't even hear the slightest Cam. Did you detect anything in the exhaust note? I'm thinking they took the expensive shifter out of it as well.

I like it alot, only thing its missing is a set of Flowmasters!

beautiful car....I'd make some small changes I think...possibly a satin black hood to cut out some of the purple and the first day I would remove and realign that steering wheel...haha...that's one of my pet peaves. Somebody has spent alot of money building a great looking car!

Looks to be the same color as that '55 or '56 Chevy you had a week or two ago.

You have a headlight out on the passenger side bro 😹.

I'm not a Nova fan... But this one is very nicely done... 👌

Very nice ride especially with a big block 454 wowsers 🔥

Wow that is a Nice Nova, I love the color and the 454!! Thanks for the ride Nick!!

I definitely miss my '70 Nova SS.

Good looking th400 transmission. Looks like the 454 has some leaky valve guides. A good Lucas seal renewer would help if you did want to renew the heads which is a fairly easy job anyways

A little discernment about the excessive smoke coming outta the exhaust. They sure didn't finesse a lot of the littlw stuff. Where's the dome light? No horn, the heater controls are missing, the shifter set at an angle. Filler tube for gas is cheesy. The major stuff is ok.

Nice car and with a 454 wow.

I had a Rare 1973 Nova Hatchback w a 307

That's a bad ass, beautiful American Classic.

the mighty turbo 400 transmission underneath, with a high dollar deep pan,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

HORN is the word of the year:D
