1967 Chevrolet Chevelle Malibu Convertible

Description

This 1967 Chevrolet Chevelle was born a true V8 Malibu convertible. So it's great to see much of that original spirit of a numbers-matching car mixed with the right upgrades - like an overdrive transmission - to deliver a total package that makes for a cool cruising drop-top.

This was an awesome year for the Chevelle. The styling is best described as crisp where each fender came to a well-defined point front and rear. Plus, there were nicely creased lines running the full length of the car. And you can see that so well today because this is a well-respected premium Malibu. This wears its factory-correct Bolero Red with a shiny distinction that comes from a later quality respray. But the vintage-style trim and distinct white vinyl roof are about giving this a classic sense of dignity. So this isn't trying to be a raucous Super Sport tribute, but we like that it does remember to keep the right V8 cruiser attitude with Rally wheels and a dual exhaust. And so that's why you'll see with this whole car. It's a touch of premium and a touch of fun that makes for a great classic cruiser.

While we like the look of the white roof, it folds back to reveal an especially attractive black interior. After all, black against red and bucket seats are part of that driver's car attitude we all love. But the detailed stitching and trim of the upholstery are there to again remind you this is more all-around cruiser than an SS bruiser. It's even nicely detailed, including working courtesy lights, wood-like dash trim, and a color-match convertible boot. You may choose to update stock features like the AM radio and air conditioning to restore the full function from these features, but we also just like seeing them looking stock in this classic. And details like the stock/grippy seeing wheel, classic-style auxiliary readouts, and a dash as long as the horizon are all part of the driver-ready attitude.

Under the hood is a 327 cubic-inch V8. It has a very stock-looking style for a very good reason: this is the numbers-matching motor. The V8 fires up nicely as it inhales deeply with the four-barrel carburetor. and the dual exhaust has the right mufflers to give it a quietly dignified tune. There's a smooth feeling to this drop-top, and that's also thanks to more recent investment in the front suspension that includes the shocks, springs, and upper ball joints. It has a good cruiser feeling with power steering, power brakes, and front discs. Plus, the transmission was upgraded to a 700R4 four-speed automatic unit that gives you highway-friendly overdrive.

The sale comes complete with the original warranty card, the owner's manual, title documentation, and maintenance records. This is a Malibu convertible done with the right true cruiser style. So you don't want to miss out. Call today!!!
