1969 Chevrolet Chevelle Malibu

Description

This 1969 Chevrolet Chevelle Malibu has a terrific vintage look inside and out. Plus, it has a ton of great classic pieces, like the factory shipping order and numbers-matching V8. But what you'll really love is the time they took to integrate the best features to make this a great cruising classic - including air conditioning and an overdrive transmission.

Not only is the odometer believed to reflect this car's actual total mileage, but also it has only been driven about 1k miles in the last few years. What that signals is a classic that has been treated as a special occasion machine. And this level of respect is seen in the factory-correct Butternut Yellow paint. It's a nice 1960s color that was given a quality respray later in life to make sure it retains a good gloss. Straight body panels, complete trim, and bright chrome bumpers are all part of the quality package. This one isn't trying to be a Super Sport. Instead, it's reminding you of premium feeling a Malibu really offers. That means terrific details, like the full-length black pinstripe that loves to show off the straightness of the body. And the sweeping trim down by the rocker is the dividing line for the lower gray section for this coupe's subtle two-tone.

The factory-correct parchment interior continues this car's premium impression. After all, the light color always has an upper-class look, and it's well-done on the seats, door panels, and headliner. It really is complete, right down to the button-top seatbacks. Even the trunk was restored to look correct. It's a comfortable driver with bucket seats, a center console, and a factory dual spoke steering wheel that gives you a clear view to the full gauge package. Plus, there are all the right extras, like auxiliary readouts, a cup holder, and a retro-style AM/FM digital tuner. And while this was born a factory air conditioning car, a newer compressor and modern R134a refrigerant means it blows cold today and keeps it easy to service down the road.

Under the hood is a very cool package. It's the numbers-matching 307 cubic-inch V8. It has the tidy look of plenty of proper care, including fresh hoses, good belts, smooth fan shroud, bright Chevrolet valve covers, and a polished air topper. So you'll happily show this one off. And because you also have a new Holley four-barrel carburetor and Edelbrock Performer EPS intake, this original powerhouse now has a lot more power. Plus, this gets to take full advantage of the enhancement because it doubles the amount of gears. The switch from a Powerglide automatic transmission to a 700R4 four-speed (rebuilt less than 1,000 miles ago) gives you better ratios and the comfort of overdrive. It makes for a much better cruising classic. This driver-friendly nature is also in the power steering, power brakes, air shocks, and a terrific set of grippy modern tires on polished 17-inch American Racing Torq Thrust alloys.

The sale come with a copy of the shipping report, which allows you to see info just like the window sticker. That's just another one of those extras that this impressive coupe loves to offer. So if you want a premium classic with a striking presentation, call today!
