1969 Chevrolet Nova with 14,000 original miles. Purchased new from Baston Chevrolet in St. Cloud, Minnesota, on July 11th, 1969, by Miss Joanne. This unrestored Nova was with the same owner since new.

It all started when Miss Joanne took her mother down to the local Chevrolet dealership in St. Cloud. They wanted to buy a car to run errands in. The car transported her mother to hair and nail appointments, to the grocery store, and around their little town. Unfortunately, in 1974, her mother passed away. Joanne decided to store the Nova in a garage in St. Paul, Minnesota. The car was taken out, usually once a month, by a gentleman named Wally, who drove it through the small town and then returned it to the garage. This tradition continued until 2026, when Miss Joanne, at the age of 89, had to go into assisted living.

The car was never driven in the snow and is rust-free. The gentleman who had the car shipped to California installed a new water pump; the original one, which can be rebuilt, came with it. He also installed new rally wheels with BF Goodrich tires. The original steel wheels, hubcaps and tires date coded February 1979 are still in great shape, and the spare in the trunk is original from 1969 and has never been used. The car still has its original plug wires and hoses. The Nova still smells like a new car inside, and every piece of documentation from day one came with it. Finished in its original Olympic Gold paint with black vinyl upholstery. A true time capsule that runs and drives like a new car; everything works as it should.
