How much is a 1977 Chevy Nova worth?

My stepdad is donating for free a 1977 Chevy Nova to me. It’s a 6cy, 250 block, 2Door, automatic, a/c, 36,000 miles. Sounds great to me. Here’s what needs to be done. The car has been sitting since 1990 on a farm, only 1 original owner, bought car brand new at the time. Before car was parked for good all it needed was a carborator and shocks. the car purred like a kitten, regular maintanance was done, he was a mechanic. I now look at the car and visually all 4 original white wall tires are flat, some outside rust. alot of rubber inside is sticky from the heat. dusty engine. all fluids are still full including gas. still original radio, lol lol. seats are perfect condition. rugs a little stained but okay. We want to put a scoop on hood and paint it shinny black and gold. Maybe down the road put a v8, double muffler, pump the back tires up. Leave it with all the vintage accessories. How much would it be worth before repairs then after repairs?

wow. right now that car is not worth a heck of a lot. Its not a SS or covertible. What ever you do don’t try and start it. The gas has turned to varnish by now and that tank needs to be drained and flushed. I agree that the motor should be tried to be cranked my hand. Remove all the belts and toss them then try and crank the motor by hand. It is my guess the pistions have become part of the cylinder walls and the motor will have to be rebuilt. You will also need to flush the coolant out of the radiator and well as flush the brakes, transmission ans rear end. Right now restored fully the car is worth maximum of about 5000. It is not a rare or collectible at this point. go on line and look at ebay. you will see a range of a few hundred to a few thousand for a 77 nova. Some times free does not mean inexpensive. My own personaly feeling is that your will spend more money fixing it then the car is worth. Right now its worth a few hundred bucks.

Much will be made of Julia Roberts’s wardrobe in Erin Brockovich–a brash parade of daring hemlines and Wonderbra confidence. Roberts is unabashedly sexy in the title role of this fact-based comedy-drama, but she and director Steven Soderbergh are far too intelligent to rely solely on high heels and cleavage. Susannah Grant’s brassy screenplay fuels this winning combination of star, director, and …

These are the earliest-known recordings of Canned Heat with the primordial lineup of Alan “Blind Owl” Wilson (guitar/harmonica/vocals), Stuart Brotman (bass), Henry “Sunflower” Vestine (guitar), Bob “The Bear” Hite (vocals), and either Keith Sawyer (drums), or perhaps his replacement, Frank Cook (drums), who joined circa 1966. Another notable name among the personnel listed on the original LP jacket is rhythm & blues legend, Johnny Otis as producer. This is certainly fitting, as the Heat wind their way through compact, high-energy versions of a variety of selections, directly contrasting the longer psychedelic showcases that would evolve over the next few years. Their almost cerebral respect for their predecessors would have suggested that the band hailed from anywhere other than their Topanga Canyon digs. However, Wilson, Vestine, and Hite were consummate students of authentic R&B, as evidenced by their practically note-for-note transcriptions of tunes from Chicago icons such as Muddy Waters (“Got My Mojo Working”), Willie Dixon (“Spoonful” and “Pretty Thing”), John Lee Hooker (“Louise” and “Dimples”), and Elmore James (“Rollin’ and Tumblin’.”) The latter cut is actually presented in two distinct renderings — with and without Wilson’s hard-hitting harmonica leads, closely resembling the sound of their self-titled debut, Canned Heat (1967) from the following year. A second holdover is “Big Road Blues,” which is also given a similar driving beat and an otherwise solid reading. These sessions have surfaced on an endless array of reissues including Don’t Forget to Boogie: Vintage Heat (2002), Vintage Canned Heat [Sundazed] (1996), or paired with a 1969 concert platter on the Akarma Records double-play Live at the Topanga Corral/Vintage (2002). ~ Lindsay Planer, Rovi Performers: Alan Wilson – Guitar, Vocals; Bob Hite – Vocals; Frank Cook – Drums; Henry Vestine – Guitar; Larry Taylor – Bass; Stuart Brotman – Bass
