The 1978 Chevy Nova 9C1 Coupe may be the rarest Nova ever produced.
We think the best Novas are the two-doors made between 1968 and 1971. That generation of Nova was arguably the best-looking compact on the market, and the SS version offered big V-8 engines that had real bite.

Since the model was actually a rebadged Toyota subcompact, that is a revival that shouldn't have taken place. However, a digital art label has decided to bring back the Nova of the Golden Era, namely the third-gen model.

Chevrolet Performance just announced some specs on the new 2022 COPO Camaro options, and one is a 572-cubic-inch big-block mill under the hood. Every 2022 COPO will come with wheelie bars, a two-piece carbon hood, and a ton of COPO-branded parts.
The Chevrolet Chevy II/Nova is a small automobile manufactured by Chevrolet, and produced in five generations for the 1962 through 1979, and 1985 through 1988 model years. Built on the X-body platform, the Nova was replaced by the 1980 Chevrolet Citation introduced in the spring of 1979.
SYC most likely stands for "Yenko Sportscars." In 1966 Yenko built his modified Corvairs to race in SCCA competition. They were converted to a two seat sports car with a fiberglass panel to make it look more like a coupe instead of a sedan.
Building 200 in each of those years, the Vega was Yenko's most prolific model. Yet it is among the rarest of Yenkos today. Only 11 are accounted for.
Our featured Yenko Stinger is Number 50 out of the 1966 100 car run, christened serial number YS-050. It is a Stage II Stinger, producing a very potent 190 horsepower courtesy of 10.1 compression, a high-performance cam, four carbs, dual exhaust, and lightweight flywheel.
The 2020 Camaro Yenko/SC package starts at $70,000, but that price does not include the Camaro SS donor car. That means Chevy fans who want the privilege of owning this modern-day Yenko recreation will have to plop down over $100,000 to do so.

Registered. All Novas were Chevy II's. You had the 100 series Chevy II, the 300 series Chevy II, and the 400 series Chevy II which they called the Nova. So if you have a 400 series, the correct name would be Chevrolet Chevy II Nova.
Nova and Chevelle are two cars of the company named Chevrolet. They were one of the most iconic cars in America. Both have stunning styling details and engine options.

The Chevelle line came to a somewhat anticlimactic end in 1977 with the release of the 1977 Chevrolet Chevelle and Malibu series of cars. Since Chevrolet started to refer to their mid-size cars as Malibus in 1978, 1977 was the last year that Chevrolet gave models the Chevelle name.
