Lots of interesting things to say about this one.
* Chevy did a great job of making its smallest, cheapest car upgradable in ways that made it a classic muscle car. You could get a Ford Falcon with a V-8, but few people think of those as collectable cars (although the Mustang is a re-bodied Falcon).
* "Super Sport" was just an appearance package - you got some neat badges and the nicest wheel covers; that's it. Although this owner has replaced the spinner wheel covers with the dog dish hubcaps.
* Novas were available with 4, 6 and 8 cylinder engines. On this car, the 327 V-8 was the biggest you could get. But the next generation Nova went bigger.
* Note it's a "Chevy II". For some reason Chevy thought that was a clever way of distinguishing the Nova from the full-size Chevy. 1968 was the last year for "Chevy II".
