1971 Pro Street Nova Super Car Test Drive! www.carsbyjeff.net

[aceman387]

This makes me proud to have a Nova! 327 with dual quad 1150 demons, hunter green paint and a snorkel hood, classic cragars, she'll eat most of the cars around my town, cept for my dad's 502 Nova!

[carsbyjeff]

@RandysRepo

Ha! I've been called a number of things but never a Geek!

[jknox1979]

I miss my nova

[dutchboy25al]

I would avoid the donut shop if I were you. I was just there and all the cops in town are droppin' gut bombs out front of the shop.

[carsbyjeff]

Hands down, the fastest freakin car I have ever driven or got to ride in.

The tires were ice cold, streets were slick, and this Super Nova was hauling ass!!

@hjewell2

I can't believe how often I'm told I sound like Obama here on youtube.

I never would have thought that in a million years. 

[angusmcpherson]

I really miss my Nova SS, with the high back bucket seats, four on the floor, and dark chocolate brown paint. Only thing is, an AMX came up to me one night when I had two girls in the car and blew my doors off. I should have dumped the 350 and put in a Rat motor for all the AMXs and HemiCudas that were too much for my little 350.

[carsbyjeff]

@angusmcpherson

Ha! That's funny. Happened to everyone sooner or later...

[tdmasterj]

Cant believe the one dude's post "Pussy! really stand on it" guess his ears missed the part where she was on the rev limiter......FAG!!!!

[coolmoodee]

[MrKawolsky]

@carsbyjeff Look nice and sounds fucking awesome. 5/5

[mskid68]

Nice car! Sounds like some tire hazing and limit bumping going on in low gear, haha. Love it.

[kodiacwolf]

Ha ha hertz Rent a Racer.... Too funny, Well, I am impressed nice Nova, and I will say, i have you saved for a future purchase.....

[TroutButter]

[thewhiteraven2501]

Thats a sweet ride :)

[wildthing302]

why is it ?that when people post these these 1 minute test drive vids, they spend 59 seconds getting on the road before they punch the gas LOL!!! very nice car tho.

[Jellobandito33]

i thought this was a game LOL!

[theRDRman]

I wonder what the gas milage is on that machine. wow it sounds nice 5/5

[Ls3guy]

[machinmanidol2]

[sabrom]

[carsbyjeff]

Easy now Young Blood, You'll get there one day too...

[sabrom]

ha ha lol that was good.

[destructo1977]

hey do us all a favor: go buy a toyota! turd!

[hilltop530]

@sabrom it doesn't matter if you're 100 years old. this car will bag more beautiful women, then a shit nosed kid ever will.

[jraintdead]

@sabrom

Some free advice. If you pull up beside one of those "old farts" at a redlight, don't mess with him. Especially if he's driving something from the '50's, '60's or early '70's. You're probably gonna get a good dose of humble pie. Oh, yeah, one more thing. That "old fart" can damn sure afford the ticket a hell of a lot more than you can.

[RunninCummins]

@sabrom They may be old, but I can almost guarantee they have a nicer car than you.

[sabrom]

@RunninCummins but i have a nicer car than you!!!

[RunninCummins]

@sabrom what do you drive? a honda civic?

[CHUUMPASS]

@sabrom there's nothing wrong with 2 "old farts" in one of these, kid :D

[RIPSNZ]

No disrespect to the car on here either, my comment was @ MPRDrummer

[xxfamouskid14xx]

PUSSY!!! really stand on the throttle

[carsbyjeff]

You Gotta be kidding!

[xxfamouskid14xx]

its a nice car i bet real fast too but its not what i expected i wanted to see it go thorugh the gears :(

[BrandonHasAChannel]

@carsbyjeff srcew the little kids and haters man, they are just unhappy with their lives :)

[tdmasterj]

@xxfamouskid14xx Your an Idiot ; )

[xxfamouskid14xx]

@tdmasterj not really..incase you didnt notice he maybe had it to the floor for a few seconds it hit the rev limiter and then shifted and was off it. i was expecting a full out to the floor through the gears run so i was mad and depressed lol

[tdmasterj]

@xxfamouskid14xx well I guess it does'nt take that much to make you mad and depressed, All you wanted was for them to "really stand on it" i.e. your original post..........I think they accomplished that ; )

[91slownotch]

@xxfamouskid14xx Well that would be just a brilliant idea on a city street! Maybe he could kill someone while he is at it?

[MegaTmarshall]

@xxfamouskid14xx Back in my day, we used to take a rev limiter out of a 4 cylinder and use it in a V8 because of the higher red line. No more problem.

[xxfamouskid14xx]

@MegaTmarshall back in your day you probably had to fred flinstone it :P

[BizbyJeff]

Chevy 540 cubic inches by Merlin making 810 horsepower on pump gas!

[MPRdrummer]

thats a beauty

idk why little asians and there piles of shit 4cyl's think they are faster than muscle cars lol

i got a pro street chevelle of my own 572ci

little honda guys think they are hella fast

they come up next to me n rev there fart cannons and there cars look like space craft hahahah

idiots i swear

only things they can say is that its heavy and it guzzles gas

they prolly dont even know why these eat so much gas n why companies designed em like it hahahaha

[Jimmetalrules5546]

Its still fun to beat them in a drag on only a quarter throttle though.

[MPRdrummer]

thats true

easy kills without a doubt

[RIPSNZ]

I know why they eat so much gas, cause there inefficient dinosaur motors!!

hp per cube you big ole yanky V8 guys are so far behind the jap motors its a joke, I run 7.40s on the 1/4 with a 182ci 6 cylinder AND its cheap on gas, go figure??

[MPRdrummer]

the bigger you engine the faster your gonna go

understand that and stop being a pig headed ricer with one excuse saying you get better mpg

understand these engien were designed back when gas was 5cents a gallon and noboddy saw the economy about to take a shit

these engines were designed for 3 things

horse power

low end torque

and speed

the reason they are heavy is the size of that engine in a light car the back ends gonna swing every which way when floored

heavy stay put

[RIPSNZ]

Your right these engines were designed when gas was 5c a gallon and time moves on man, its not 1960 any more, they might sound nice and you may think bigger is always better but we can run 7.40s with a super reliable 180ci jap street engine and easily claim records off the old school V8 boys in the same class.

Maybe YOU could appreciate that you don't HAVE to have a massive Yankie V8 to do well at the strip.

maybe your the pig headed one who can't see past the pushrods?

[MPRdrummer]

bigger is still better

why would professional drag racers use large v8's like mine for no reason

2 things torque and speed

they spend over 200,00 dollars on those simple looking drag racers

if they got that kind of cash then they obviously want the best motor they can get

get it through your heads that a bigger engine will out run a smaller engine

especially when the designers of it created it big for a reason

japanese is hardly reliable

the most reliable is korean built

[RIPSNZ]

BTW, how fast does your Chevelle go on the 1/4?

[MPRdrummer]

i my fastest was a 5.98 and that was because conditions were perfect and my traction was perfect

normally i run the 6.20's

[RIPSNZ]

7.41 was on the 1/4, not the 1/8th, best on the 1/8th is 4.6 with a 180 cubic inch fully water cooled street motor, and btw, it still has a stock nissan block and crank, try that with a 25 year old stock chevy passenger car block and crank :-)

Each to their own and as long as your happy thats all that matters, it'd just be good if you could respect others doing well with what they chose and not putting out a blanket statement that all imports are crap.

[MPRdrummer]

i hate japanese with all my heart along with every other REAL RACER

we all look down on this new fab thats hit the street and laugh becasue we all know a cylinder engine isnt fats especially with the stupid wings that arent gonna help in at all because its not even gonna get close to the speeds that will lift it off the ground

not to mention body kits what the hell does that do besides add weight to your all ready struggling engine

then we move to the engine

WTF?

a 4cyl? come on=/

[RIPSNZ]

Who said anything about 4 cylinder?

There's a big world out there man, life does not revolve around your neck of the woods, massive V8s and cuddling on the couch with your sister,

Most people with any real knowledge of cars and engines could at least respect 1300-1500hp reliable street cars wether they be jap or Yank, will you ever see past your porch?

I'd be happy to race you in my Rice anytime, heck I'll even give you a 2 second head start!!! And, yes, I can back up my talk with proof.

[kblopp]

Do you have any proof of that 7.41 Because I find it hard to believe.

[RIPSNZ]

Sure, just click my user name and you'll see the 7.41, alot of mid 7s and even 7.8s to 7.9s in a full bodied 240z with the same motor :-)

Unlike some (not you), I don't talk crap on youtube, I can back up all my comments.

[SinistrChevy]

@kblopp lol dude you might wanna look into that cause he aint bs'n

[digzdirt]

that pos 182ci is not pushing a full body around either..

also look at the turbo-blower V8s that will rip your little sling shot to shreads the car in the vid has no forced

induction..pull your head out of your ass !

[RIPSNZ]

I was never knocking the car in this video, just the comments made by MPRdrummer.

In a full bodied 240z street car with the same "pos" 182ci motor we ran 7.86 @ 177mph so plenty of power/torque there, check my vids to confirm.

Your right the big V8s with turbo's are awesome, I just think some guys need to have a little respect for just how good the smaller jap engines can be, just my opinion though.

[digzdirt]

most of us have respect for all combustion engines,and ive had a few 4 cyl engines myself 22r toyota reliable gm quad 4 the new ford and gm 4 cyl engines are insane also the buick 3.8 ltr

they have gotten close to 7s if not but when you ride in a 1200hp twin turbo ls1 on the street and can drive it every day

its completely different i thought my 450hp 383 nova was cool with these kids today thats mild,lol there is also a v8 toyota indy engine on dyno 18,000rpm

yes 18,000 ! youtube vid

[digzdirt]

my bad---f1 dyno is a honda engine but still 18,000 rpm

[digzdirt]

"f1 dyno test" V10 engine insane  not v8...

[jdog8617]

@MPRdrummer damn straight! My favorite car is a Mustang (aka the box car) it's a lot faster then the imported shit coming out these days.

[assault301]

Man... Y disrespect a car by having a clone??? Clones are wanabes.... They wish they could be the real thing but they can't.... How cool is it if let's say you and 5 of ur Buddies own the same expensive car onnly urs is a clone... Idk bout y'all but I'd be sad, sad that my car wishes it could be the other 5 cars.... What a dissapointment... Clones...

[punkjake]

Damn straight man, if you're gonna' get a car, make it an official. I'd only ever get a clone if I wanted to shock people by wrecking it infront if them lol.

[yoGOES]

your a fag

[yoGOES]

your a fuckin dumbass. this car is pro street he obviously spent more money on the engine than any SS. this car rips in a 1/4 mile. so what would be the purpose of buying an SS when your going to be redoing everything in it? stop hating and just admire the car you fuckin loser

[punkjake]

Calm down, stop getting your panties in a twist

[skintoaster]

price tag plz?

[99GPSE]

omfg excuse me whilst i change my shorts thats is one bad ass car

[wisinyyandel101]

[epi9]

JESUS FUCK!!!!! lol, i had my speakers up trying to here the motor, then WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!! scared the she shit outta me you prick, lol, nice ride

[bigdzzplace]

Still not sold it? Thought it be gone in a flash...get back to me///DAVE from Canada

[stig422]

[1982mf]

[carsbyjeff]

Yes, check with Hurtz Renta Racer!

[jerryhowell9]

@carsbyjeff i thought you was being a smartass about the hurtz renta racer i didnt think it was real

[themeaningoflife38]

how much is it? Or how much did it sell for?

[carsbyjeff]

$85,000.00 gets it!

Jeff 410-562-9319

[2529Nov]

[toosloww1]

i bet this is a high 8 second car

[carsbyjeff]

We will probably never know. It did seem Really Stong on a tap it and let off ride!

Jeff

[xCYROWx]

Hey man that is clean. i have 68.

[carsbyjeff]

Yes, and we can't forget how hard the guy worked to get the money!!

[roknroy]

yes! good point! you have to have 200k to spend on the car, which 99 percent of the people in the hobby can't come up with. the builder deserves credit for hard work to earn that money. by the way, i wish i had your job! looks fun!

[freshkleensucks]

or owe the money haha

[NHL7R6]

what kind of orange is that i have a 71 nova also and that color looks awsome i want my nova to be like that .

[NHL7R6]

that will make those ricer drivers to get real car

[64tbolt64]

beautiful nova man come check out the vid of my 64 fairlane i built

[maplelaffs]

what a way to make a grown man giggle. Drive it on the streets.

[atdlusdriver]

"yet you got these kids running around with there fwd ricers thinkin they got "somethin"

dont have too much fun now!" - Jonny Monza

[RIPSNZ]

Nice, what does she run, 10s?

[carsbyjeff]

Much quicker than that...

[2529Nov]

8s 9s i like it, what engine size 454

[carsbyjeff]

540 Merlin Big Block pumping 810 Horsepower on the motor...

[huslnuracingcrew]

any track footage????? time slips???

[carsbyjeff]

To this date he has never run it. Merlin (the engine builder guaranteed high 8's...)

[huslnuracingcrew]

this car will probably never see the track.... and if it did it would not touch the 8's to save it life.....thats a high 9 second car all day...but dont feel bad...after all its a show car....not a race car...if he ever decides to run it i want to see...

[freshkleensucks]

how would u know this? did you run it?

[bigdaddy0228]

Sounds healthy what you got 283 or 265 or 235.I have a small tire street nova that would drag that thing down the track.Thanks for the video

[camaro4542u]

$200,000 sounds quit much but i guess fool and his money are soon parted...........

[cmfg600]

Its all in where you are, and how you present it. You can find just as good and faster for 1/3 of that price in the midwest. Damned near everyone whom has a car thinks that because you sunk $25K into a car, that automaticly makes it worth that much. It doesnt. Performance parts depreciate the value of a car, at least in the eyes of the bank. The unfortunate part is, there are rich folks out there with $200K laying around and they think "I am going to buy a pro street trailer queen today."

[shredBucketheadshred]

MAN I HATE LIVIN IN SOUTH AUSTRALIA!!!!

no PRO STREETERS!!!!!

[MiK3Y13]

sounds pretty healthy, what do you got in it, 454 468, 502, 510, 565, 572?

[carsbyjeff]

Merlin 540...

[MiK3Y13]

o ya..  nice.. about 600-700 horse.. do u drag at all

[th3godfatherofRS]

holy shit u just wasted my 2 weeks pay in gas lol

[thebestwes1]

[ipeanuts437i]

[hogan327]

[PacRatx07]

holy shit tht is a beatiful car

[disturbingimages666]

where the fuck do u live?

[maxnanabas09]

nice muscle car

[minoop2]

Who needs a radio?

[carsbyjeff]

Maybe an AM for the traffic report!!

[YuppieGearhead]

Man is that pumpkin orange a popular color for Pro Street Novas. A buddy of mine has a 70 in the same color. However, his is a 565 Twin Turbo. Drives it on the street with no hood, snails peeking right up into that fresh air. Helped tear down the motor for cleaning in January. Thing runs like a raped ape.

Sweet, sweet car. As always, good luck with the sale!

[carsbyjeff]

Thanks! This car is Bad to The Bone!!

[MullenUrock]

i think i saw a viper.... i did i did i did see a viper

[carsbyjeff]

Hmmm, I missed the Viper. Maybe he was trying to get away from this Street Beast!!

[MullenUrock]

:32 sec in its parked with stripes. i wouldnt mistake that for anything

[R0JIBLANC0]

do you know how long ive been waiting for you to test drive this?!!?!!?
