Iconic lines, powerful V8, four-on-the-floor, luxury interior, and plenty of money invested all around - this 1969 Chevrolet Malibu is that turn-key classic for the person who wants to skip the time and headache of creating an award-worthy classic, and instead just wants to get right to driving it. This Malibu is a premium example and this one lets you know that from the first glance. The factory-correct Cortez Silver has been expertly re-applied to make sure you know it's... precious metal. And of course, nothing says 1960s premium like a black vinyl roof. This dark element coordinates nicely with the detailed areas like the grille and rear accent lines. In fact, speaking of artful, the big chrome bumpers look terrific as they follow the sharp lines of the hood and trunk. And the way everything has a cut-above presentation instantly conveys a solid investment all around the car. But more than just get the classic elements right, the 17-inch Torq Thrust wheels are a bright shining symbol that this is an upgraded machine, too. The factory-correct red interior is a great color against the silver exterior. And this one is particularly nice, because the seats, dash, door panels, and headliner have a feeling of fresh investment. And we love how the lower dash has been painted an exterior-matching silver to give this the feeling of a very uniform build. This is the kind of classic that family and friends will love to ride in, and so it's good you have nice features like a retrosound AM/FM digital tuner and provisions for modern R134a air conditioning. But this is a driver's car at its heart. So while it holds true to its roots with a bench seat up front, there's a removable cup holder center console to provide an individual level of comfort whenever you want. Plus, when your left hand grabs the red and chrome steering wheel, and your right one grabs the Hurst shifter, you instantly get the tingle of performance even before you fire up this Chevy. You can tell the engine bay was customized just to show off this motor. Smooth walls, tidy wires, and few intrusions give you a fantastic view of this shining powerhouse. And that makes sense considering it shines brightly with polished components such as the pulleys, alternator, steel hoses, brake booster, and Chevrolet valve covers. But more than just look great, this 1969-correct V8 has plenty of power thanks to upgrades like the large Edelbrock four-barrel carburetor, air gap intake, and ceramic coated headers that add even more power as they contribute to the rumble of the dual exhaust. You have complete control over this enhanced V8 and its thunderous soundtrack thanks to the four-speed manual transmission. And while you're looking at this coupe, don't forget to check out the undercarriage photos. Not only does will its clean silver presentation impress you, but look at all the details, too. You've got great driving features like four-wheel disc brakes, power steering, newer bushings, modern BF Goodrich gForce tires, sway bars front & rear. So if these seems like the perfect cruiser, you'll love the large aluminum radiator w/electric fan. After all, this means this will keep cool even if you're in traffic with the A/C pumping (Power Tour anyone?) Starting to see the total investment in this one? So the only way this Malibu will disappoint is if you miss out on it. Call today!!!
