1967 Chevrolet Chevelle Malibu

You know that person whose car looked like a sedate classic but ended up blowing everyone's doors off? Now it's your turn with this 1967 Chevrolet Chevelle Malibu. It looks like a cherished vintage coupe, ut beneath the skin is a hardcore 427 big block that's got all the right components backing it up.Royal Plum is this Malibu's factory-correct, nd very rare color, ut it has a modern maturity that will make people think you pulled it out of the latest color palette. It's the perfect color for a stealth muscle machine. In fact, he '67 Chevelle's bodylines are perfect for this mission too. The shape is one of GM's better designs (and is possibly the most popular year Chevelle), lean, hiseled and well-defined without being gimmicky. This long, ninterrupted profile means panel fit must be as nice as this, ecause there is nowhere for imperfection to hide. This one completes the cherished classic appearance with all the brightwork looking its best. It's seen on everything from the big chrome bumpers, o the Malibu cursive script on the rear fender. But if you do pay attention, his Chevelle will give some hints that it's more than just a prized cruiser. Little places like the half moon covers on the headlight, nd the forward leaning stance, re subtle clues that there is a beast within. The black bench seat interior is part of the Chevelle's no-nonsense vibe, nd the intricate pattern gives it the upper-class Malibu trim a nice finish. It matches nicely with the door panels, o come together for a tasteful and uniform appearance. The dash has lots of shiny surfaces surrounding the original instruments, hich still show clean faces and bright orange needles. The wide speedometer still has clean, right markings and very little fading, nd the woodgrained accents that were part of the Malibu package are still bright and crisply rendered. But, f you let people look over this one too long, hey might wonder why you need all those auxiliary gauges, ncluding the large SunPro tachometer.If you want this clean Malibu to keep its stealthy secret, hen never open the hood. Then again, t will be hard not to show off all the shiny bits on the 427 cubic-inch V8 that fills the engine bay (the car's original matching numbers 283 is also available.) The big block was installed around 7,000 miles ago, nd it was built with performance goodies that include a Street Fighter camshaft, delbrock carburetor, nd Edelbrock RPM Air Gap intake. The monster motor stays cool with a new aluminum radiator, nd it exhales through a stainless steel Flowmaster dual exhaust with performance X-pipe construction. So no matter how hard you were trying for the sleeper image, he roar of the pipes will reveal how much power you are really laying down. That's ok, ecause you have all the right components to rule the streets. This one has the rodder's favorite two-speed Powerglide transmission with 2400 RPM stall converter to keep you in the ideal powerband. This is mated to a 10-bolt Eaton Posi limited slip rear end, unning a versatile 3.55 ratio. So is this a great-looking classic, r a tire-burning muscle car? The answer to both is yes. That's why this Malibu is the perfect coupe for everything you want with an American classic, nd it has the reliably to be fun for years to come. We even have a pile of restoration receipts to prove it. Call today!!
