For sale at our Gateway Classic Cars in our Houston showroom is
this gorgeous 1967 Chevelle Malibu. The Chevelle was intended to
compete with the Fairlane, and was supposed to reflect a car
similar in size to the Classic Tri-Five of the decade prior. They
would go down as being some of the most memorable cars of our time.
The Malibu continued its reign as the leading seller of the
Chevelle, and would continue to do so throughout the Chevelle's
life, because it boasted the highest number of model options with
the 4-door sport sedan, 2-door sport coupe, convertible, 4-door
sedan, and 2-seat station wagon. One could get anything from a base
model 300 coupe with a 230 CI inline 6 with a 3 on the tree, to a 4
door wagon with a 327 and a 4-speed manual, to a fire-breathing 375
HP 396 CID V8 in the SS model. If you wanted it, chances are it
could be found in a Chevelle. With its classic "Coke bottle"
styling, the '66 and '67 models were instant hits, and continue to
stand the test of time. This '67, however, comes complete with a
drivetrain on steroids, while deliberately maintaining a "sleeper
look". Under the hood, you'll discover that there's a fuel injected
468 CID Chevrolet V8 that fires up with the powerful
attention-grabbing snarl that is the unmistakable bellow of a
big-cammed Rat Motor. This big block is equipped with a
properly-dialed-in MSD Atomic Fuel Injection system, and a March
serpentine pully system. A big Griffin aluminum radiator keeps this
big mill properly cooled. Backing up the big rat is a GM 700R4
4-speed automatic overdrive transmission that twists a set of
3.73:1 gears in its 12-bolt Posi rear end. Its coated headers will
look good for a very long time as they suck the exhaust gases out
into 3" dual exhaust system. The body is in very good condition,
and it's bathed in a nice shade of Gold Mist Metallic (color code
51U). The factory drums in the front were replaced with discs, as
well as having a power booster added. The rallye wheels continue
the "sleeper" motif of this classic. Open the doors, and the Medium
Gold front buckets and rear bench seat, with their cloth inserts
are definitely a throwback to 1967. If you have been wanting a
classic car that has stood the test of time but don't want take the
rest of time to pay for it, then this Rat-powered Chevelle should
be exactly what you need. Options on this 1967 Chevrolet Chevelle
Malibu include Power Brakes, Power Steering, Vinyl and Cloth
Interior, Seat Belts, and Radial Tires wrapped around Rallye
Wheels. For more information on this 1967 Chevelle Malibu for sale,
