Win a 570-HP LS7-Swapped 1970 Nova SS (or Take $40,000 Cash Instead)

What You're Looking At

This is an original 1970 Nova SS shell restored in Hugger Orange and rebuilt around Chevrolet Performance's LS427/570 — a 427-cube, LS7-based crate combo rated at 570 hp — backed by a Tremec T56 Magnum 6-speed with a 2.66 first gear. Power runs through a 12-bolt rear axle fitted with Mark Williams axles, with a Haltech Rebel ECU/PDM tying the electronics together. TBM XS3 brakes sit at all four corners on a TBM billet master cylinder, a PWR aluminum radiator and American Racing long-tube headers handle cooling and exhaust, and the cabin gets Vintage Air, Dakota Digital gauges and black bucket seats. Motion Raceworks has been documenting the build on YouTube, so unlike most giveaway cars you can actually watch this one go together before you enter.

Why It Matters

This isn't a bargain LS-swap job — the LS427/570 crate engine alone lists well into five figures new, and pairing it with a T56 Magnum, Haltech standalone management and Mark Williams axle components signals a shop-grade build rather than a budget resto-mod. The giveaway also runs across three storefronts — Motion Raceworks, TBM Brakes, and Mark Williams, both of whose parts are actually on the car — so entries can be earned by shopping any of the three sites tied to the build.

The Fine Print Worth Knowing

The official rules describe the Grand Prize as a choice, not a fixed car: "One (1) winner will receive their choice of either (A) a 1970 Chevrolet Nova with LS7 T56 engine/transmission swap valued at approximately $50,000 and $10,000 which will be awarded in the form of a check (total ARV: $60,000) ... or (B) $40,000 awarded in the form of a check." In plain numbers: the winner can take the Nova plus $10,000, or walk away with $40,000 cash and no car — the marketing page never mentions the cash-only route. Sponsor also reserves the right to substitute a prize of equal or greater value. If the vehicle is taken, the winner is on the hook for all federal, state and local taxes and must accept delivery at a Sponsor-specified location within 30 days of being notified it's ready, or risk forfeiting the prize to an alternate. Entries run one per $5 spent (rounded up) at any of the three partner sites, with no purchase necessary via a mailed 3"x5" card postmarked by October 3, 2026 and received by October 7, 2026. The random drawing is handled by Marden-Kane, Inc., an independent sweepstakes administrator, on October 9, 2026. Entry is void in Alaska, Hawaii and where prohibited.
