Hi all,
I hope this is the correct spot for this question...
A couple of days ago I discovered a 1962 Chevy II Nova over here in Holland (Europe). A real barnfind, it has been standing in a shed for over 40 years. Those Chevrolets are very, very rare over here. The car is in a rather poor condition and my intention is to restore it. The engine has seized and of course it needs a lot of new parts. But there's the problem; I can't find any documentation over here in Holland. Can someone help me out with for instance a digital copy of a workshop/service manual? And any specifications of the engine and gearbox? All I know is that it's a 194 3.2Litre straight 6 with a manual 3-speed gearbox (I found out that you Americans call it "three-on-the-tree"?). But that's not enough to find parts or instructions how to maintain it/get it apart and up and running again.
My other cars are old Volvo's, i know a lot of them but this Chevy is all new to me.
Please excuse me for the bad English. I think you all can imagine that I don't speak it very often over here. I hope you can help me out to get this car on the road again. Many thanks in advance.
Of course I have a picture of the car. Let's see if this works:
