Ultra Rare '70 COPO 427 Nova

[YenkoYS100]

Geez, All these years I have thought the last year for a 427 Factory GM installed engine, into a Chevy passenger car was '69. I guess I'm wrong again. And imagine.........The bad news is the Orig. 427/425hp. engine is gone........Nice '69 fender emblems.Great shot of the horses ass in the picture. <Grin>

Back in around '81, a buddy of mine bought an original one,a '69 aluminum head 427, off a guy's front lawn- the price: $350...that was for the whole car!

Well, there is a sucker born every minute. And it also seems that there is a shyster born every minute to take advantage of them. I must be one of the goofballs that the seller is talking about, since I have no desire to bid on this. It is pretty obvious that this is just a converted plain jane small block car.

Well, if the Nova is a Real SS, I would think it would also have black steering colunm. the fender emblem, seams to be 68, and of all things, has A/C. That has to be one Rare HP auto, never knew they installed High Horse Power Motors, with A/C. Go figure,some sucker will buy it, watch and see.Wish we could edit his add, to warn all buyers.

Here is a nice touch he added at the end:

<BLOCKQUOTE><font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial">quote:</font><HR>On Nov-18-00 at 14:50:17 PST, seller added the following information:
Due to the a histerical cry-baby notifying me that he know everything about every chevrolet car ever built, This car is NOT a original SS car, my description never said otherwise. The car has Never been restored!!! I've owned this car for a number of years, I bought it in the condition that you see it. It has a brand new out of the crate LS6 454 from chevrolet. This car is as near perfect as you will find on this planet. Bid on this car as you see it. a gorgeous nova with a new 454 motor. I wasn't there when the car was purchased new, I do not know where it was originally sold, what dealer put the motor in, chevrolet did not put 427 or 454 in chevrolet novas EVER!!! Aftermarket companies did this conversion. Is this in fact one of those cars? I don't know for sure, I have No documentation on this car, If I did I would be asking 3 times as mush as my reserve. If I had papers on this car I'd shove them down this jerks throat. I hope this clears up any perceived misrepresentations on this car. If you don't like it, don't bid. Please no more cry babies that drive pintos emailing me to tell me how much you know.

Well, I have one thing to say,"Don't mislead the unknowing"...Do you think he's pissed He doesn't even know what he's selling, looks recondition to me.

I would tend to stick up for the guy whos selling this car. He never said it was a 427 car or anything like that. I knew the first time I read the description that it was a built car. Its kind of like when you have parts for sale and someone tells you that you have them priced too high. If your not interested dont buy them. Dont go crying about it.

[YenkoYS100]

I'm sorry that I read and assume too much from what I have read.

Here's the Header for the auction : 1970 Chevrolet : Nova 14,000 miles
427/425HP Awsome MINT SHOW Orignial

Then you get this in the description :
Ordered with low options, radio delete, no tinted glass, no carpet, has 12 bolt posi with 4.10 gears, turbo 400 transmission on the column, bench seat. Trunk looks as if it's never been used. now for the not so good part, the original motor was plucked out some time ago and now has a fresh out of the crate LS6 454 450HP.

Did I read something wrong ????

It is a B.S. Type auction to suck in the unknowing.

Why does he later say this : ???

, chevrolet did not put 427 or 454 in chevrolet novas EVER!!! Aftermarket companies did this conversion. Is this in fact one of those cars? I don't know for sure

I agree he shouldnt have put the "I dont know if its one of these cars" part in his decription, but come on, any "car guy" who half way knows anything knows better. Looks like a nice driver though.

In 1970 I would have thought at least power brakes would have been standard if it was a big block. He never came out and said it was a original 427 car but he made is sound like it was. It is worth harassing him if it means we can prevent someone who doesn't have much money that goes all out to buy it finds out later its really a six cyl car or whatever. Being one of those people that may only own one supercar someday I would hope the one I get is real
