Default Re: The most "significant" Chevrolet performance c

For me growing up (Beloit, WI) I can remember a black Nova that had Cragars all around it with the biggest tires I had ever seen in the back. My first car was a Nova. As I grew older I can remember an article in a magazine that interviewed Don Yenko. He said the 1969 427 Yenko Nova was “a beast, almost lethal, a car that they should not have produced; as they were skirting the edge of product liability when they built this car”.

So I vote for the 1969 Chevrolet 427 Yenko Nova.
