How about an ashtray for a '68.
They go for around $200 sometimes!!!
That's the rarest part for a '68!!!

Good one! I'd say get him something he needs for the car. I know I'm going through restoration on my '68 and my birthday is in 2 weeks. I'm sure I'll get nothing but parts that I need or as yoboy sawyer said, gift cards...

Summit, YearOne,Classic Industries, etc all would be an AWESOME idea.

I was given a California Car Cover last x mas for my Nova ......maybe not unique but was a great gift for the car.
Would come in handy especially after he's restored the car.

when doing a ground up, $700 isn't much at all... complete interior kit will almost kill that !!!

Hello Jennifer. You say your boyfriend has a 68 Nova ? That year Nova is a bit different than the other years that look similiar. If you can find out what parts he may be needing for the car maybe some of us here on the site can get those parts to you. Is he restoring the car or is it a drag car only or a street/strip car. If you think he may need some hard to find used parts for it we may can help. If he wants new stuff, the links the other members have for you should lead you in the right direction. Good luck.

Tommy :)

Jennifer, Glad to have you on the site!! These are great guys all with one passion and that is the Chevrolet Nova. You will be traveling that road with your boyfriend soon. He is lucky to have you that is certain. These guys joke and play but are there in a New York minute to help. You will not get BS'ed around here. The people of this board are good people and always willing to help.

You have been sent on the right path.......

Oh, and we like pictures especially of 68's and make sure you stand in the shot. You will be famous before your boyfriend even thought about it!!!!
