Get ready to take a nostalgic ride with the 1966 Chevrolet Chevy II Nova wagon, a car that packs a punch in its plain jane disguise. Starting with an economical inline four, it can transform into a beast with engine options like the 283 V8 offering 220 hp. But why stop there? Go full throttle with the Turbo-Fire 327, delivering a whopping 350 hp. Whether you’re a budget-conscious driver or a speed demon, this Nova can morph to suit your style—just like a Transformer, minus the world-saving duties.
There is the plain jane Chevy II 100 with a thrifty in-line four cylinder engine offering basic transportation at a very low price. The optional engines begin with a choice of two inline sixes or the 283 cu in (4.64 L) as the entry level V8, which offers 220 hp (160 kW) of power. Next on the list is the 327 cu in. (5.36 L) V8 developing 275 hp (205 kW) or the top choice in ’66 is the Turbo-Fire 327 cu in (5.36 L) offering you 350 hp (260 kW). The new engine combined with the close-ration four speed manual shifter, puts the Nova into a new class. and it performs like a true high performance muscle car.
