Chevy II to Chevrolet Nova second Generation 1966-1967

by Ross Mills

In 1966, Chevy II transformed into a sharper, more angular beast with a bolder grill and a semi-fastback flair—like a car determined to make geometry cool. The Nova SS, the top dog, flaunted a 194 cu in inline-six but could flex with any engine, turning it into a muscle car with attitude. By 1967, safety upgrades joined the party, making this ride as safe as it was stylish. Despite these changes, only 8% went for the Nova SS with a V8—proving that not everyone was ready to go full throttle on the highway of life!
