1940 Chevrolet Nova

The 1940 Chevrolet Special Deluxe represents a pivotal era in automotive design, blending the classic pre-war aesthetics w/ the emerging trends of the 1940s. This model year is particularly notable for its beautiful streamlined styling, which set the stage for the dynamic designs of the post-war period. The 1940 Chevrolet Special Deluxe Sport Coupe was the top-of-the-line pre-war American car featuring streamlined 'Royal Clipper' Art Deco styling. Chevrolet built 46,628 units of the Special Deluxe Sport Coupe out of 431,199 total Special Deluxe models produced in 1940. In the current collector car market, there seems to be a plethora of 1940 Fords out there, w/ the 1940 Chevrolet being a much, much rarer specimen.
