Why Choose Ausley’s Chevelle Parts for Your Nova Upgrade?
At Ausley’s, we specialize in classic Chevy restorations and high-end aftermarket hardware. When you order this CVF hinge kit through us, you get:
-
Fitment expertise: We help ensure you select the correct hinge variant for your specific Nova year (63-65, 66-67, or 68-79) and hood type (stock steel, aftermarket steel or fiberglass).
-
Build coherence: Not just “part in the box” — we guide you through final fitment tips so hood gaps and alignments look factory or better, rather than ‘close-enough’.
-
Support & service: From finish choice to shipping and installation advice, we stand behind your restoration build so it shows and performs like it should.
Installation & Fitment Notes
-
These hinge kits are sold as pairs, replacing the factory hinge assemblies.
-
Because of the built-in adjustment, you’ll be able to dial in ideal hood-to-cowl and hood-to-fender alignment.
-
Before installation, ensure the hood mount surfaces, latch geometry and cowl clearance are correct — any misalignment in those areas will limit the hinge’s adjustment potential.
-
As the manufacturer notes for many Nova hinge kits: a minimum clearance (e.g., 5/16″ between back of hood and cowl) may be required for optimal operation.
-
Confirm that your hood’s material (steel/fiberglass) selection aligns with the variant you ordered — selecting the wrong hood-type variant may affect strut operation or clearance.
