INTRODUCTION: Classic looks and modern muscle: this 1967 Malibu
delivers stunning style and serious performance! It underwent a
total body off frame pro touring build with impressive results.
EXTERIOR: This Chevelle has the look dialed in perfectly. The
stance, the attitude, - it is just right! The body is
laser-straight with consistent panel gaps throughout. No rust, no
damage- just clean, crisp sheet metal including a cowl hood. The
burgundy metallic paint is absolutely gorgeous. When the light hits
it from different angles, the metallic comes alive and really
highlights the body contours. The finish is laid out evenly with a
smooth, high-gloss clear coat that looks deep enough to swim in.
The chrome and trim are straight and shiny, complementing the paint
beautifully. A detail I really appreciate - it's still proudly
badged as a Malibu instead of being converted into an SS clone. The
vinyl top, windshield and weatherstrips are new. It's sitting on
staggered Billet Specialties wheels-18s up front and 20s in the
rear all wrapped in performance tires with extra wide rubber out
back. It's a fantastic blend of factory heritage and modern
muscle!
INTERIOR: The interior has been completely restored from carpet to
headliner while retaining its original charm it is updated with
some modern conveniences. Down on the floor is fresh carpet with
embroidered mats. The door panels, rear seat upholstery, headliner,
dash pad, and trim have all been replaced with quality reproduction
components, It's been tastefully upgraded with reclining sport
bucket seats and ahead of the driver is a set of Dakota Digital VHX
gauges and a retro-style stereo system. Between the bucket seats
sits a factory center console and a 6-speed shifter. The deluxe
steering wheel is mounted to a tilt column. It's a beautifully
executed interior - classic at first glance, but with the right
upgrades exactly where you want them.
ENGINE COMPARTMENT: Power comes from an all aluminum 6.2L LS3 - a
modern powerhouse that delivers reliability, efficiency, and
serious performance. It's equipped with FAST fuel injection, a Big
Mouth throttle body, EZ-LS ignition controller, and a custom cold
air intake to ensure crisp throttle response. A set of Ultimate
headers wrapped in heat shielding helps maximize performance while
keeping temperatures under control. Up front, the engine features
all modern accessories including air conditioning, power steering,
serpentine belt system, and a high-output alternator. It runs cool
thanks to a large aluminum radiator with dual electric fans and a
polished overflow tank. A Wilwood master cylinder is mounted to a
chrome plated power brake booster. Additional upgrades include:
Remote breather/catchcan system, billet hood hinges, premium
Aeromotive fuel regulator with braided fuel lines, new wiring and
wiper motor. The firewall and inner fenders have been smoothed, all
metal surfaces are finished slick and the custom coil pack covers
are painted the body color. A custom engraved front filler panel
completes the presentation. This engine bay is not only built for
performance - it's built to impress every time the hood goes
up.
TRUNK COMPARTMENT: Under the deck lid and the jamb is painted slick
and glossy just like the exterior. Inside has been boxed and
upholstered for a clean, finished presentation. Behind the
removable panel you'll find the spare tire along with a relocated
battery which has a master disconnect switch.
UNDERSIDE: The body was removed from the frame so every inch could
be restored, upgraded, and detailed properly. It now rides on a
custom built chassis that's been significantly strengthened with a
Hellwig reinforcement kit, including boxed side rails and
additional supports for improved rigidity. The entire chassis has
been powder coated and reassembled with urethane bushings. The
suspension has been upgraded for both handling and stance. Up
front, it features UMI tubular control arms, Afco adjustable
coilover gas shocks, and a larger sway bar. Out back, it's equipped
with UMI adjustable control arms, Afco gas shocks, and a sway bar
to keep it planted and composed. The custom exhaust delivers a
deep, aggressive tone through Flowmaster mufflers wrapped in heat
shielding. Stopping power is equally impressive with a Wilwood
brake system featuring 13-inch drilled and slotted discs at all
four corners, 6-piston calipers up front, and 4-piston calipers in
the rear. The fuel system is all new, including a 24-gallon tank
with an in-tank Quick Fuel pump. Looking up at the aluminum motor
there is a high-torque starter. Power is sent through a heavy-duty
Tremec TR6060 6-speed manual trans with a Semco reverse lockout and
hydraulic clutch setup. An aluminum driveshaft connects to a built
9-inch Moser rear end featuring a back brace, 35-spline axles,
nodular center section, Trac-Lok posi, and 3.89 gears. The floors
are pristine metal, finished in a clean semi-gloss coating. The
underside reflects the same level of quality and attention to
detail as the top!
SERVICE: We take pride in our cars and reputation. Therefore, we
built a 2 million dollar, 10,000 square ft service center, and
hired a team of technicians to service the essentials on every car
we sell.
CONCLUSION: This Malibu delivers on all levels! Looks, performance,
nostalgia and modern reliability and comfort!
