This amazing Custom 1967 Chevy Nova Sold for $300k at an Auction event

Sometimes car customizing and art meet each other. The result is not always something that can please gearheards or artists but sometimes it can please both. That's my opinion about this very unique 1967 Chevy Nova. This impressive ride was recently sold at RK Motors auction event and it raised as much as $300k. It's not a surprise when see all the work done with this iconic car. The attention to details is just mind blowing! You can see by your self in the shots below.

This Chevy Nova built by Illinois based Roadster Shop was not just built for the show. It is powered by a LSX454 engine producing a very healthy 700 HP and 828 Nm of torque (611 lb-ft).

Take your time to browse the gallery below to discover some exquisite details like the psychedelic front grille or the seven spoke wheels.

Pick of The Day: 1959 Corvette by RK Motors

Chevy LS9 power with a 1959 Corvette body, perfect combination? This flint metallic grey Vette prepared by RK Motors was sold for $209k and we think it's pretty good value for such a unique car. Power comes from the Chevy LS7 V8 engine producing 600 Hp. The beast sends its power to the rear wheels through an RPM Transmissions-built Tremec T56 six-speed manual. In other words, a proper driver's car.

If you'd like to learn all the details about this fantastic classic Vette, drop by RK Motors where you can find the full high res photo gallery and the full details about this fantastic build.
