Question by Russell.: How many 1977 Chevrolet Nova Cabriolets were made? Any info on this particular type of Nova?
I have one as my first car, and start driving in exactly a year, and i was just trying to get some information on this specific type of nova. Regaurdless, i love this car, and all Novas (except the Chevy Two’s ((1969))), but i want some info. It came stock with a 305 engine, bench seats, two doors, anti-slip wheels, and half rag top (which is the only difference between regular Nova, and the Cabriolet.) Thanks for any info you can supply.
actually, it has a lot of power. it came stock with a 305, but we are going to put a bigger engine in it by the time im done with restoration.
