Vehicle Description
With strong V8 power, overdrive transmission, and a ton of upgrades
inside and out, this 1969 Chevrolet Chevelle Malibu has been given
all the right investment to be a classic cruiser with plenty of
modern appeal.
The consignor states that this coupe has gone through a complete
frame-off restoration about six years ago. And the condition of the
whole car reflects an investment in quality. The blue paint has the
unmistakable look of a well-done upgrade later in life. There's a
deep shine from the metallic finish that loves to let sunlight show
off this Malibu's crisply creased fender tops. Of course, it can't
be a true classic American without some great brightwork. Big
chrome bumpers are always a terrific draw, especially when they hug
the car's form and have a mirror-like appearance. And as a premium
Malibu, you get the stylish trim strip that starts in the grille,
dips low after the headlights, and then zooms down the full length
of the car. The whole package feels thoughtful and respectful of
this classic. That's why even the upgrades are period-correct, like
the dual exhaust tips, redline tires, and Keystone wheels.
The factory correct parchment interior has a sophisticated style
against the exterior blue plays to the heart of this restored
Malibu's premium feeling. It's meant to be clean, crisp, and very
vintage. Plus, the high traffic areas like the carpeting and
steering wheel are done in black, so you know they wanted you to
get in and enjoy this coupe. There's even a vintage style AM/FM
stereo w/aux input. That way you can roll down all the windows on
this pillarless hardtop and listen to your favorite driving music.
Then again, the auxiliary gauge trio and large tach placed
front-and-center on the steering column are indicators that your
favorite soundtrack may just begin under the hood.
The bold orange valve covers and air intake may give some the first
impression of a stock engine bay. But it takes little more than a
second glance to understand that this is really a fresh and
powerful setup. It's fresh presentation means it's easy to spot
performance components, like the Edelbrock four-barrel carburetor,
Edelbrock intake, PerTronix ignition, and long tube headers. The V8
fires up readily as and has a proper V8 rumble through the dual
exhaust. A powerful V8 is good for all conditions, including
cruising, and so the transmission was also upgraded to a four-speed
automatic with overdrive. Plus, it feels quite confident on the
road with power steering, new power brakes, front discs, and fresh
tires.
This is a sleek coupe with the correct color combination of
performance and flair. So when it has been invested in so nicely as
this one, you it's a deal that won't stay with us long. Call
