Hello

I have a 1965 Chevy II Nova Super Sport Wagon, It comes with a v6 (250 cubic inch), 3-speed Manuel transmission. Its used to be my grandfathers but he passed away 7 years ago. The car has been sitting in my garage since. The car has not been started or driven since the passing of my grandfather. I hope to get it running in the next few weeks. The engine fires up but it seems to be a fuel pump, line or tank issue. I hope to get it figured out soon. My plans for the car are to improve the suspension, add disc breaks, add a few bolt-ons to help add more horsepower and just a really good cleaning of the entire car. Hope you like what i have. I will take more photos later.

Thanks

Welcome to the best Nova site on the net.

There are a lot of wagon owners you can ask for assistance/info.

Might as well tell you that your wagon is not a V6 or Super Sport, but is an excellent candidate for frequent use or full restoration.

Hope you keep us posted with updates on the wagon and it seems that everyone likes pictures (me too).

exactly... they never installed a V6, but used an I6 (Inline 6) and GM never made a Super Sport station wagon...

cool car regardless... good luck!

Gotta agree with everyone else. Not sure what's under the paint but it certainly looks clean. Great car to base a fun hot rod.

THANKS! everyone for taking a look at my car. Sorry for posting the wrong information about my car. I knew it was a inline 6. i should of proof read my post. I also did a vin number check on my car and it said it was a super sport but i could be wrong. Ill keep everyone posted about the car.
