1970 Chevrolet Nova SS Tribute – Astro Blue V8
This sharp 1970 Chevrolet Nova presents as a well-executed SS tribute, finished in the desirable Code 25 Astro Blue paint. Powered by a 350ci V8 producing 350 horsepower, it is paired with a Turbo 350 automatic transmission and a 10-bolt rear end with 3.55 gears for lively performance. The car has been restored and features excellent body and paint, a very nice black bucket seat interior with a console, and desirable upgrades including power front disc brakes, power steering, and a great-sounding dual exhaust with headers. Riding on 14″ SS wheels with BF Goodrich Radial T/A tires, this Nova is not only visually striking but also mechanically sorted, reliable, and ready to drive anywhere.
