* Model: SS models (especially 396 big-block cars) are worth significantly more than base models. Even within SS models, options and condition affect value.
* Condition: A concours-restored car will be worth far more than a rusty, neglected example. Rust is a major factor affecting value.
* Mileage: Low-mileage cars are more valuable.
* Modifications: Original, unmodified cars are generally more valuable than heavily modified ones, unless the modifications are high-quality and documented.
* Documentation: Original paperwork (build sheet, owner's manuals, etc.) significantly increases value.
Therefore, there's no single answer to your question. A rough, incomplete 1968 Chevy Nova might be worth a few thousand dollars, while a pristine SS 396 could be worth well over $100,000.
To get an accurate valuation, you should:
* Consult online resources: Websites like Hagerty, ClassicCars.com, and NADAguides provide valuation tools. Input the specific details of the car (model, condition, mileage, options) for a more accurate estimate.
* Seek appraisals from classic car experts: A professional appraisal is the most accurate way to determine the value.
In short, you need to provide more specifics about the 1968 Chevy Nova in question to get a reasonable estimate of its value.
