This 1963 Chevrolet Chevy II Nova SS convertible was sold new at Appleway Motors of Dishman, Washington and spent time in Montana and Illinois before being relocated to Delaware by the seller in 2017. Power is supplied by a replacement 194ci inline-six paired with a two-speed Powerglide automatic transmission, and equipment includes power front disc brakes, a floor-mounted shifter, 14″ steel wheels with SS covers, side moldings, and SS badging. A refurbishment is said to have been carried out during previous ownership, including a repaint in black, interior refreshment, and a replacement manually-operated black soft top. This Nova SS convertible is now offered with a reproduction window sticker, original purchase paperwork, manufacturer’s literature, and a clean Delaware title in the seller’s name.
Originally finished in Ermine White (936), the car received a single-stage repaint in black under previous ownership in Illinois. Equipment includes chrome bumpers, gray belt line and rear fascia trim, Nova SS badging on the rear fenders, a manually-operated black vinyl top, and a tan vinyl tonneau cover.
Stock steel wheels with Super Sport covers are shod with Uniroyal thin whitewall tires, and a spare is located in the trunk. The car was factory-equipped with power-assisted steering along with front disc and rear drum brakes with stainless steel lines.
The Saddle interior features vinyl upholstery on the individual front seats and rear bench as well as color-matched door panels and loop carpets. Amenities include a pushbutton Delco AM radio and front lap belts. The seller notes that the left door dome light switch does not work.
A two-spoke steering wheel with a chrome horn ring fronts a Saddle-painted dash that houses a 120-mph speedometer and a five-digit mechanical odometer that reads 95k miles, approximately 3k of which have been added under current ownership. The clock is inoperable, and total mileage is unknown.
The replacement 194ci straight-six was installed under previous ownership and features a single carburetor. The two-speed PowerGlide transmission is said to have been overhauled during the refurbishment.
