1969 Chevrolet Nova SS L78
Muncie 4 Speed Manual Transmission
Gorgeous Garnet Red Paint (Code 52) over the factory spec'd black bench seat interior, the engine was recently rebuilt and wears a 4 Barrel Carburetor, Winters Aluminum Intake Manifold, Headers, and an Aluminum Radiator!
When it comes to muscle cars most folks want mustang, vet or Chevelle. I myself have always loved 69-70 novas.
My grandfather was an engineer/test driver/tech writer. He worked for Chrysler during ww2 and drove tanks on the proving grounds. Most of his career, he worked for Chevrolet, retiring in the late 70's. He told me that a 1969 4 speed manual 396 Nova was the strongest car he ever tested. Ever.
Gramps was a smart guy 👍
Fun fact: the “375hp” 396 was wrote that way on paper for insurance reasons. In actuality on a dyno it laid down a solid 400+.
Bought my ‘70 Nova in October, ‘69. 350/300hp. Paid $3100, out the door!
Man I wish she was mine.
During the drive, why is the BRAKE light illuminated red behind the tach? Brake problem or was the parking brake left on?
I have one if these Nova’s. Their weak point is narrow rear wheel wells and small tires. Mine is mini tubbed so that solved that problem.
I'm 15 and I'm already trying to raise money for this car.
Novas were light. A Nova with the 375 horse 396 is a bad ass combination.
i have 71 with a 454 in in it and it's a beast
Oh man why don't I have any money 😥
Nothing better than a 396 when built right. Sounds awesome.
100% agree. Big block Chevys forever.
Had a Blue 69 NOVA 396-L78 4 speed back in early 70’s. Put 2 1/8 inch Hooker headers on it and swapped the stock 3:55 rear for a 4:10. Fun ride.
burn out machine !
Very beautiful car! 👍
You can't beat this specific look on this generation of Nova. Stunning.
WOW!! Love that color. Wish I still had my '70, 350 SS Nova.
Camaros, Chevelles and 'Vettes were for jocks, Novas were for motörhead's.
Thump music...I left..!
Imagine if these novas had the Ls6 454 in them
Asking price?
$65,000!
Thats a really beautiful car. I'm in the process of restoring my 69 nova that was hit 22years ago.
Going to do a Yenko clone in the same Garnet red paint. Whoever painted that car did a really nice job. 👍
1.5 M
Lots wrong with it for $65k
Absolutely, if it was a proper #'s car Maybe 45K. These are not a high demand car. Plus the market is so stinking flooded with rigs right now.

my DREAM car beautiful
Is paint Guards Red, or Fire Engine Red ❓ 🚩
Option sheet at end of video shows exterior paint as 52 52 which is Garnet Red for both body and roof.
Nice
Don't tell me this bad boy is STILL on the market!
I ordered a 1969 nova in 69 new from Parklane chev. In sarnia ontario , it was a special order 327/325 hp.with a muncie 4 speed and 12 bolt rear end , can't remember the price . Wish I had it today !
Very classy little car
I love a built 396
Still have this nova ?
😒why didn't I keep mine!!😏
did this car sell?
@01:51 Why did u mute the part when you touched the battery?
Ah yes, the 69 L78 Nova, had a friend in Houston that had one in 78, fun little ride, Rock crusher transmission helped.
Just an FYI, this does not have the M22 “rock crusher” trans. Look at the option sheet at the end of the video and box 3 clearly shows M20 which is the standard, wide-ratio 4-speed trans.
Fitment is not as good as you say, it’s very good, not great.
Glory Be!
What is contact I found to buy this nova if still available
Call us anytime (248) 714-2110 we're happy to answer any questions you have about the car & assist with shipping!
That was my 1st car when I was 18
So your first car at 18 years old was a 375-hp L78 Nova? Cool story bro 👍🏻
Fast street weapon
Mine was black
Window molding with paint is not a option .
Correct. That was standard.
Nice
A flawless car and no clutch pedal pad........what's with that ?
no fan schrod?
Nice ride with a M22. Trans . Garnet Red is Not as Brite as Torch Red . Whe never said a price?? What's the mystery
He did not say it was an M22. The option sheet shown at the end of the video clearly shows M20 in box number 3 on the second line. That is the regular-duty, wide-ratio 4-speed, not an M21 close-ratio 4-speed or the M22 heavy-duty, wide-ratio 4-speed.
Does this car have an M22 in it now? I don’t know but if it does, it’s not original.
The mileage that you have listed for some of your cars and trucks is incorrect. On American cars with a 5-digit odometer when the last digit sets higher than the others that indicates it has been rolled at least once. For example, the 1972 Ford F100 Ranger would have at least 137256 miles, not 37256.
Oh the M-22 whine. Pure music to my ears.
except its a m-21
@@frostycools1315 Agree to disagree. M21 Does Not Whine like that Transmission
He did not say it was an M22 or an M21 however the option sheet shown at the end of the video clearly shows M20 in box number 3 on the second line. That is the regular-duty, wide-ratio 4-speed, not an M21 close-ratio 4-speed or the M22 heavy-duty, wide-ratio 4-speed.
Does this car have an M22 in it now? I don’t know but if it does, it’s not original.
@@NovaResourceThen its not original. I’ve owned and driven many M22 Muncie’s, and that’s an M22
@@ironhorse127 Agree to disagree. The M22 is very rare and desired so don’t you think if it was an M22 they would have clearly mentioned it in the video or listed it in the description? There’s no way to know for sure by just watching and listening to this video. It could just as easily be a gear drive cam timing set.
Riding the clutch
if it was an l78 it would have a factory tach. i didnt notice one.
Tach in dash and gauges were options
@@stevekelly4103 hi Steve, didnt all bigblock l78 have a tach in 1970 with the 402/396? with the 375 hp red line at 6k and 350 hp at 5500?
@kevinbender1754 Not true
@@kevinbender1754Steve is correct. In-dash tach was optional. To get it you had to have the floor console because the tach replaced the fuel gauge in the dash so the fuel gauge was moved to the console. To get the floor console you had to have bucket seats. So any Nova with a bench could not get the optional gauge package with the in-dash tach.
I learned something new. thanks.@@NovaResource
For a few dollar more. I'd rather get a new fully loaded GT Mustang convertible.

@@ironhorse127 It's a good movie.
@@amberlopez7477 🤙🏻🤙🏻
5 mins into it WHY IS Tack at 6 ?
Not all aftermarket tachs drop to zero when shut off.
I want to know why the brake light in the dash behind the tach is on during the drive. Brake system problem or is the parking brake on?
