I recently purchased this 1978 chevy nova. The puchase price was $350. I quickly pulled out the stock 6 cylinder and dropped in a 300hp 350. I then instaled a 5 speed tranny out of a 89 camaro parts car. I recently found some headers at a swap meet. I plan to install a lot of extra engine chrome. As time and money allows. I am installing a grant steering wheel, and changing the interior to gray and black. It did not have carpet or seats in it when I purchased it. I have purchased a nice set of bucket seats. I am not putting a rear seat back in. I'm going to build a custom audio system in place of the back seat.(I love to thump).It's a project in the making. Please leave messages with assistance.

I just wrapped and installed my headers and ran into a problem clearing the clutch linkage. If anyone out there has encountered this problem. Drop me a line on how you resolved it. I'm heading to the salvage yard tomorrow to see if I can find a different linkage. I may have to design a new one. We'll see!

Nice car. I own a 77 Nova. You should check it out sometime and tell me what you think.
From what I can see, you got a GOOD deal for only $350. I'm looking for some misc. spare parts and was wondering if you were willing to sell anything. I'm looking for the plastic trim that goes inside around the wondows to hold the headliner in as well as the plastic column covers. Mine's about shot...
