If the buyer handed over the extra cash for the SS version, that figure plunged to 15.2 seconds. The 17.4 second time was about what buyers expected in 1977, but a 350/auto 1970 Nova in its most conservative tune could cover the same journey in 16 seconds. To gain an insight into the impact that emission regulations had on performance, it is worth comparing the ETs of a 1977 Nova 350 versus a 1970 model.
Considering the best a buyer could expect off the showroom floor in 1977 was 170hp, this car should blow the original 17.4-second ¼-mile ET for a 350/auto equipped example 10-foot in the air.

It is full of desirable components, and with an Edelbrock 600cfm carburetor forcing the mixture into the engine and spent gases exiting via a dual exhaust with Flowmasters and an equalizer pipe, the driver will have 265hp available under their right foot. If the engine bay presentation looks exceptionally tidy, that is because the 350ci Crate Motor occupying the space has clocked a mere 100 miles. The seller doesn’t indicate what motor originally resided under the hood of this Nova, but that is now academic. The photos may be limited in this listing, but the picture they paint appears nothing but positive. The White Rally wheels are spotless, while the glass, trim, and chrome look excellent.

The strips show no evidence of lifting or checking, while the panels are free from dings, dents, or visible rust. The paint shines nicely, with any flaws or defects proving too small to show in the supplied photos. The seller states that the paint and stripes are original, and if this is accurate, it makes their condition very impressive. Our feature car wears Bright Yellow paint with the distinctive Rally “triple-band” stripes in White. The option brought no performance upgrades but was an appearance package primarily restricted to some unique stripes and badges and some cosmetic changes to the grille and headlamp bezels. However, only 6,901 of those buyers went that step further to order a Nova Rally. The Nova proved to be a sales hit for Chevrolet, with 365,264 buyers electing to park one in their driveway in 1977. Located in Algonquin, Illinois, you will find the Nova listed for sale here on Craigslist. It presents well, but the fresh Crate Motor occupying its engine bay should make it fun to drive. They elected to reintroduce it for the 1977 model year, and our feature car is one of those vehicles. – Chevrolet introduced the Rally option to its Nova range in 1971, but it only remained on showroom floors for two years. There have been no other changes beyond the price, and I must say a big thank you to Barn Finder Pat L. Considering all it offers, that price is looking more tempting. It is listed here on Craigslist with a further reduction to $17,500. They slashed the price to $19,500 but still had no joy. They initially offered it for $23,500, with no success. They have listed the classic for a third time following a dramatic price drop. It seems the owner of this 1977 Chevrolet Nova Rally has that trait in abundance.
