Vehicle Description
This 1972 Chevrolet Chevelle Malibu is an interesting classic. It
carries the right classic elements, like its factory-correct colors
and numbers-matching V8. It even upholds its premium Malibu image
with features like the A/C interior. But this hardtop also gives
you that right touch of an upgraded Super Sport nature that always
looks cool. The result is quite an eye-catching classic
cruiser.
Pewter Silver is a great timeless color, so we're happy to see a
trim tag that tells us this is factor-correct. The black vinyl roof
is also correct, and that looks right on a premium Malibu. But this
is not just some preserved Chevy. You can tell there has been a
nice investment in this one to give it a bit more attitude. A
respray included an upgraded to SS-style stripes on top. The black
paint not only goes with the vinyl roof but also the upgraded
blackout grille. It makes for the right mix of sporty and
sophistication. The same goes for the later-style Super Sport
wheels. Straight body lines, a good gloss, and form-fitting bumpers
make for a total presentation that's quite attractive while still
remaining very vintage.
The black interior goes well with all the exterior accents. So it
makes for a fine package inside and out that will have you leaving
the windows down on this pillarless hardtop. It's a comfortable car
with a smooth dash and plush carpeting. Vintage fans will even
appreciate details like the correct Malibu door panels and working
dome light. A Malibu is a true vintage cruiser, and so it's nice to
have two rows of wide bench seats that are good for both taking
along more friends or just a more personal drive-in night. In fact,
the way to really view this Chevy is as a car that you can cruise
any time. That's why there have been well-integrated upgrades, like
the retro-style AM/FM digital tuner and the stock air conditioning
controls now leading to an updated system blowing cold with modern
R134a refrigerant.
Under the hood is the numbers-matching 350 cubic-inch V8. It's
showcased correctly with everything from bold orange block paint to
the correct decal on the air grabber. Sure, there are easy and
affordable upgrades to add some serious go-fast goodies to this
hardy motor. But what we really like is how this Chevelle respects
its nature with an ultra-tidy engine bay to showcase the original
motor. It's a solid running package, and the three-speed automatic
transmission, power steering, power brakes, and front discs are all
there so it's easy to get out there and enjoy.
This is the classic Chevelle with the right premium Malibu
features, some upgraded SS sporty style, and an overall finish that
makes it easy to enjoy out on the road. So if you're looking to
drive an icon, you know this is the one. Call today!!!
