The bonnet is gone, replaced by a towering supercharger gulping air above the engine bay. Huge drag slicks fill the rear wheel arches, while narrow front tyres create the nose-high gasser stance that once ruled American drag strips. There is no attempt at subtlety here. This is a classic two-door Chevrolet transformed into a purpose-built quarter-mile monster, ready to launch hard, lift the front end, and thunder towards the finish line. Bright, outrageous, and proudly excessive, it captures the raw theatre of old-school drag racing perfectly.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eAbout the Real Car Inspiration\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eModel:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1966 Chevrolet Nova custom drag racer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEngine:\u003c\/strong\u003e Supercharged American V8\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePower:\u003c\/strong\u003e Highly modified drag-racing specification\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrivetrain:\u003c\/strong\u003e Rear-wheel drive\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHighlights:\u003c\/strong\u003e Exposed blown V8; classic gasser stance; oversized rear drag slicks; narrow front tyres; bonnet-delete bodywork; bright yellow finish with Mooneyes graphics\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eFrom Compact Chevrolet to Quarter-Mile Monster\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\nThe Chevrolet Nova began life as a relatively compact and practical American car, but its straightforward construction, rear-wheel-drive layout, and generous engine bay made it a favourite among hot rodders and drag racers. Builders quickly discovered that the lightweight Nova body could accommodate serious V8 power, creating a formidable combination on the quarter mile.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\nThis Super Nova takes that formula to its theatrical extreme. The enormous supercharger dominates the view through the missing bonnet, while the contrasting tyre sizes make the car look ready to transfer every possible kilogram of weight onto the rear wheels during launch. It is exactly the sort of gloriously unsubtle machine that made traditional drag racing such a spectacle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eWhy Collectors Will Love It\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\nThe bright yellow body gives this release enormous shelf presence, while the black-and-white striping and Mooneyes graphics connect it directly with classic American speed culture. The exposed engine provides plenty of mechanical detail, and the contrasting Real Riders tyres reproduce the purposeful proportions of a proper drag-strip build.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\nMetal\/Metal construction gives the model the weight and finish expected from Hot Wheels Premium, while the numbered Boulevard packaging makes it an essential addition for collectors following the complete series. Whether viewed from the side, front, or directly above that enormous blower, the ’66 Super Nova never lacks visual drama.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Details\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRecommended Age:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3+ years\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAssortment:\u003c\/strong\u003e GJT68-958J – Hot Wheels Boulevard\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSKU:\u003c\/strong\u003e JHW35\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eYear of Release:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2026\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBoulevard Number:\u003c\/strong\u003e 157\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConstruction:\u003c\/strong\u003e Metal\/Metal body and chassis\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTyres:\u003c\/strong\u003e Real Riders rubber tyres\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eHot Wheels Premium Boulevard cars feature exclusive deco, Metal\/Metal construction, Real Riders tyres, and numbered collector packaging.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n","brand":"Hot Wheels Premium","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67341869908217,"sku":"GJT68-958J : JHW35","price":13.99,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0174\/6747\/3984\/files\/JHW35_43.webp?v=1792030186","url":"https:\/\/www.toys101.co.nz\/products\/hot-wheels-boulevard-no-157-1966-super-nova","provider":"Toys101","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
