It\u2019s been around the block, too, as it was originally a New Mexico car, then a Texas car, onto New Jersey and finally back west to Arizona. It has taken quite the journey since it was built!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This 1968 Nova was delivered to Tony with a 496 big block that came equipped with Profiler aluminum heads, a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ss396.com\/category\/nova-quickfuel.html\" class=\"rank-math-link\">Quick Fuel<\/a> carburetor, 12 bolt rear end with 3.73 gearing, and a nice full dual stainless exhaust system. Tony loves the horsepower and pure muscle this setup represents. Oh, and the beautiful paint and new interior too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He\u2019s considering installing an aftermarket AC system, as he does live in the Arizona heat, and it could use a power steering upgrade, as it is currently a manual steering car and it does take quite a bit to muscle it around a parking lot.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ron bought this 1968 Nova sight unseen from a 72 year old retired dentist clear across the country in New Jersey.
