1967 Chevy II Nova Sport Coupe owned by Paul Walker surfaces on the market

A 1967 Chevy II Nova Sport Coupe once owned by “Fast and Furious” star Paul Walker is up on the market on Bring a Trailer.

This coupe was modified by muscle-car parts specialist Yr One following production of 2003’s  “2 Fast 2 Furious,” which featured a Chevrolet Camaro and Dodge Challenger kitted out by the corporate, and was presented to Walker in 2004, in accordance with the sale listing. The Chevy II itself appeared in 1962 as a more conventional alternative to the Corvair, with Chevrolet later adding Nova badging before dropping the Chevy II a part of the name completely.

The automobile wears paint that, in accordance with the listing, is modeled on a Porsche color from 2002 called Slate Gray. Exterior modifications include a cowl induction hood, and mini-tubbed rear wheel wells that accommodate 18-inch wheels with 295/35 BFGoodrich G-Forca T/A tires. The wheel-and-tire setup is staggered, with 17-inch wheels and 225/45 tires on the front.

Chassis upgrades include a Ford Mustang II-style power steering rack, four-link rear suspension, adjustable coilovers, and disc brakes. It’s unclear what engine was installed by Yr One, however the Nova currently has a 6.0-liter V-8 believed to have been sourced from a General Motors pickup truck. The engine, together with a 4-speed automatic transmission, were installed in 2010, in accordance with the listing, which notes that the Nova’s chassis number indicates it left the factory with an inline-6.

The automobile was acquired by its seller in 2020 and has received some upkeep work, including substitute of the carpeting and battery, some touch-up paintwork, and repairs to the speedometer and tachometer.

Walker, who died in a 2013 automobile crash, amassed an eclectic collection, including Japanese sports cars just like the ones his character Brian O’Conner drove within the “Fast and Furious” franchise and European classics like a 1973 Porsche 911 Carrera RS 2.7 and BMW M1. This Nova shows that his tastes prolonged to muscle cars as well.
