This 1972 Chevrolet Chevelle Malibu convertible was originally sold in Canada and was imported into the United States in 2019. The car has been refinished in burnt orange metallic paint with painted white stripes over white vinyl and is powered by a replacement 408ci V8 paired with a four-speed automatic overdrive transmission. Features include a power-operated soft top, 17″ alloy wheels, power steering, power four-wheel disc brakes, Edelbrock E-Street aluminum cylinder heads, an Edelbrock intake manifold, full-length headers, dual exhaust, a transmission shift kit, SS emblems, and a Delco AM radio. This Chevelle convertible is now offered by the selling dealer with manufacturer’s literature and Connecticut registration.
The car has been refinished in burnt orange and features a white soft top, chrome bumpers, SS-style painted white stripes, and SS emblems.
Rally-style American Racing 17″ alloy wheels are mounted with 245/45 front and 275/40 rear Mickey Thompson Street Comp tires. The seller notes that power-assisted SSBC four-wheel disc brakes are installed.
The interior features white vinyl front bucket seats together with matching door panels and black carpets. Amenities include a metal-trimmed center console, a heater, and a Delco AM radio. Discoloration is present on the seat backs.
The three-spoke steering wheel fronts a horizontal 120-mph speedometer and a gas gauge. Gauges for oil pressure, voltage, and coolant temperature are mounted beneath the dash. The five-digit odometer has rolled over and shows 3k miles. Total mileage is unknown.
The replacement 408ci V8 is fitted with Edelbrock E-Street aluminum cylinder heads, an Edelbrock intake manifold, a chrome open-element air cleaner, and full-length tube headers that exit through dual exhausts. An aluminum radiator is fitted, and the chrome-plated accessories are driven by an aftermarket belt drive system.
Power is sent to the rear wheels via a four-speed automatic overdrive transmission that has reportedly been fitted with a shift kit.
The car does not have a title as Connecticut does not issue titles for cars of its age. It is being offered with its registration.
