Description of 1968 Chevrolet Chevelle |
We are selling our 1968 Chevrolet Chevelle to a good home! This is truly a beautiful street car that can also perform well at the track. We have spent thousands in the last few months improving this car and it is ready for a new home. My wife doesn't really bond with these old cars so it has got to go. eventually. This Malibu is an Idaho rust free gem with original floors and trunk. It has new gloss black paint with metallic burgundy stripes almost ghosted in. The pics make the stripes look brighter than they are due to the direct sunlight. The body is very straight and the paint is gorgeous! Be prepared to talk about this car every time you stop at a light! Background: This car was recently built by an unknown body shop in Meridian as legend has it. The car has a 1970 Big Block 402 that was bored and stroked to the 427 cubic inch monster it is today. When I purchased the car. it had less than a 1. 00 miles on the new engine but there were no baffles on the valve covers so it passed too much oil through the intake and therefore the rings never seated properly. The only right thing to do was to pull the engine and do it right! We also purchased this car with manual steering and all drum brakes that didn't do this car any justice. Treasure Valley Street Rods in Boise. ID removed the engine and installed an all new front disc brake system and a new power steering system. The engine was sent to Performance Solutions in Boise. ID where is underwent a complete tear down and rebuild. New Hydraulic Roller 427: MSD Ignition. Howards Hydraulic Roller Cam. Eagle Steel 427 Crank. Gear Drive. TRW Forged Dome Pistons. Clevite Bearings. Sealed Power Moly Rings. 10. 15:1 Compression. Howards Roller Lifters. Comp Push Rods. Desirable #049 Large Oval Port Heads. 2. 06 Intake & 1. 72 Exhaust. Team G Midrise Intake. Proform 850 Carb. Block was cleaned. honed. decked. sonic checked and was in terrific condition. Engine was assembled and then dyno-tuned for maximum performance. Dyno sheets and all receipts will be included in sale. It would cost roughly $7. 00 to build this engine to the level it is today! This engine puts out 482 HP and 465 FT LBS Torque!!!! Treasure Valley Street Rods also installed new Moog Rear Springs. added Airlift's Drag Bags to fine tune ride height and launches. New Shocks. Turned Flywheel. New Clutch and the front end was checked and aligned today. All the tie rods and ball joints are new and the rear drum brakes are new as well. Entire front end is tight so this car drives. tracks and brakes straight! This Chevelle also has a new style Super T10 4-speed Transmission that shifts like butter. The U-joints are new and all that power goes to a BUILT 10 Bolt Posi Rear End with upgraded Sierra Axles and Gear Set. 4:10's get this car moving in a hurry! Car also has Dougs Headers. all new 3" Exhaust with Flowmaster Mufflers. New Sump-Style Gas Tank. New Fuel Pump. New Optima Battery. New BFGs with 225/60/15s in the front and 275/60/15s on the rear GM Rally Wheels. New Large Be-Cool Aluminum Radiator and Overflow Tank as well. Lots of money was spend on engine bling as well! The interior of this awesome Chevelle is also new! New seats. Door Panels. Dash Pad. Steering Wheel. Gauges. Monster Tach. Carpet. Sill Plates. Sunvisors and More! The dash in uncut with old style radio that is not currently hooked up. The gas gauge doesn't work and not sure if it is the gauge or sending unit. I have about 7 trophies from just last year that the previous owner won at local car shows. It is usually a people's choice winner and gets tons of looks around town. I don't believe he attended a single show without winner something! This is one of the baddest Chevelles around that is a blast to drive and take to car shows. The hood is a high end fiberglass hood with factory style hinges. New bumpers front and rear. Taillights are LEDs that look very cool and are much brighter than stock. Other lenses are new and all the lights work including the dome light. The windows have been tinted all all the glass seems to be original. It's hard to find cars that are done to this level of quality where everything works including the windshield wipers and emergency brake! I have spent thousands over the last several months getting this car completed to dream car status! Just hop in and go!We can assist in the arrangement of shipping at the buyer's expense for out of town buyers! I have sold many high end sports cars and muscle cars on Ebay with excellent feedback! I do not believe in misrepresenting cars and I personally have travelled many miles to see a vehicle that was grossly misrepresented here on Ebay and I would not do that to anyone. Please email me via Ebay with any questions you may have. Thanks for looking and good luck to you!
