Here's the story,,, This was my parents car that they bought new in 1972 at Luci Chevrolet in Vineland N.J.... It was ordered by me ( remember when you could order a car exactly how you wanted ? ) for them with minimal options.. I couldn't talk them into air condition because it cost about $250. more but I did get them to go for the tinted windows at $39. ..Cost new with options, power glide trans $169. power steering $100.  body molding $33.  AM radio $65.  Vinyl roof $82.  full wheel covers $26.  W/W tires $28.  vinyl interior $18.  Tinted glass $39.  undercoating was free.. .Total cost of $3,003 .. I have all original books, manual, emission control book, Chev. consumer info book, seat belt info book, finance contract from the bank, insurance paper and dealer order sheet from 1972...My parents both have been gone for many years... It was maintained religiously including in the garage washing in the middle of winter time with a bucket of water...At about 85 years old my mother ran into a car on the drivers side front fender.. Hood was not touched...From that time on the car sat in her garage as is because she was then afraid to drive.. She turned it over to my oldest son right before she died .. It sat in his garage for years as is until he needed the room for his new car.. I took possession of it a couple years ago.. I bought another '72 Nova and used the fender and grill parts to put it back together ( I have the side molding for that fender ).. Also put in a new radiator and gas tank .. It runs great and goes down the road nicely.. It is registered, titled, insured and on the road legally as an antique in my name.. The paint is mostly original but over the years my parents did have parts painted to fix scratches and dings but all matches and looks pretty good....There are some dull spots and some very minor surface rust spots that will probably buff off with a polishing compound.... About 30 years ago someone bumped it in the back and bent the rear bumper and the metal behind it.. It did not affect the trunk or the light... Tires are about 30 years old but hold air and have tread... Brakes feel good with no issue but have been on the car for about 25 years .. Muffler sounds like it is rusting.. There is rust behind the front and back wheels but floors are great and trunk still has the original speckled paint and jacking instructions.. I had plans of restoring it for sentimental reasons but my retirement and a Florida home have changed my priorities .. I very rarely run it other than a down the road and back about every few weeks... The last time I drove it it acted like it had cruise control.. Everything was perfect until I let off the gas and then it stayed at the speed I was going.. To slow it down I had to brake it or put it in neutral.. When you put it in neutral at highway speed it comes down to an idle so its easier to stop that way considering these old drum brakes on it.. That problem just started and I was told the kick down linkage may be rusty and sticking ... It will cruise up to 50 MPH ( thats about the fastest its ever been ) with no issue...Due to this cruise control like problem I do not feel comfortable allowing a potential buyer to test drive it.. I will test drive it for you for safety and my personal responsibility.. I think you will be convinced that this car is what I say and my honesty and integrity will not be compromised to sell it... Money is not an issue, its just that I don't want this car to sit and rust away when someone can give it a good home... Please check my feedback.. I'm proud of my 100%... Any question about this vehicle please e-mail me... I am not a professional mechanic or body work guy... All of what I describe is my own opinion or what someone has told me...I welcome you or your mechanic to inspect it.....If you win it and you can show me it is not as I described ,  you don't have to buy it when you come to pick it up, but please don't nit pick this 42 year old car because you changed your mind before even looking at it.. If your buying and transferring title without an inspection , the deal is over and it is your car... I don't think that I can be any more fair than that... I'm sure there are small things that I look at everyday on it that I just don't see because I've been looking at it for over 40 years ( kind of like you don't notice how gray you and your wife have gotten until you look at your old wedding picture,,, sorry honey ! ) ,, but please know I am not misleading you to unload a piece of junk !!!!!!     If you purchase my car I want a $300. paypal deposit within 24 hours of the end of auction and the rest can either be 1 of 2 ways... a wire transfer to my bank or cash in hand... I will not accept any check of any kind for all or any part of the deal....   thanks for your consideration !!!!!!!!!!!!!
