Vehicle Description
A triple-black 1964 Chevrolet Chevelle Malibu SS convertible
already seems like the perfect cruising classic. Then when you add
in the power and growl of the upgraded stroker V8, then you know
exactly why you want this one.
The Chevy Chevelle hit the scene in a big way for the first time in
1964, and a genuine Super Sport convertible like this one was a key
reason for the success. The design represents the new edge style of
the 1960s, especially the flared rear quarter panels that are one
of the car's defining feature. Plus, the crisply contoured hood
bears a familial resemblance to its big brother, the Impala. As you
look over this droptop you'll love the look of the black paint
against all that brightwork. In fact, the shining elements are
excellent on everything from the wide bumpers to the SS badging,
which tells you someone invested a lot in this convertible to keep
it shining bright. The only piece that doesn't look straight from
the factory are the stylish Cragar SS wheels... but let's face it,
if this was your SS back in the 60s, you'd do the exact same
thing.
Beneath the black vinyl roof is a black interior. So the exterior
paint, roof, and interior combine to deliver the triple-black
presentation that's always in demand. As a true Super Sport, it
gets the details right with bucket seats up front and a bright
center console running in-between. Cruising always feels extra cool
when you look out from behind the dual-spoke steering wheel and see
the big, bright dash panel with round gauges. Of course, you'll
also instantly pick up on one modern upgrade. The radio still keeps
the original knob-style presentation, but the AM/FM/cassette stereo
with digital tuner means you get to cruise with much more modern
tunes.
Just like the exterior, the engine bay uses plenty of brightwork
against dark paint to draw notice. The ribbed valve covers,
pulleys, intake, air topper, and much more have been polished to an
attention-grabbing shine. But while the bright appearance will draw
the crowds, the growl this one makes will scare them away. That's
because you're looking at a 383 cubic-inch stroker V8. More than
just displacement, this performance motor inhales deeply through an
Edelbrock four-barrel carburetor and Edelbrock intake. It exhales
with authority as the headers feed the H-pipe dual exhaust. Out on
the road, the enhanced V8 feels quite nice as the extra power
combines with the Powerglide automatic transmission, power
steering, power brakes, and thick sway bars front & rear to create
a terrific total cruiser experience.
This is that bold, powerful, and memorable classic that you've been
waiting for. So don't let this first-year Chevelle SS droptop slip
by. Call today!!!
