This 1968 Chevrolet Chevelle Malibu Sport Coupe is powered by a replacement 454ci V8 paired with a four-speed manual transmission. The car is finished in red over black vinyl upholstery, and equipment includes air conditioning, an Audiovox AM/FM cassette stereo, a black vinyl roof, polished Cragar wheels, front bucket seats, SS badging, and dual exhausts. It was reportedly refurbished during prior ownership and was acquired by the seller in 2019. This Chevelle Malibu is now being offered with a Pennsylvania title in the seller’s name.
Finished from the factory in Matador Red (R), the car was repainted during prior ownership, and the seller notes evidence of repairs on the bottom of the passenger door as shown in the gallery. Exterior features include a black vinyl roof, SS and 396 badging, dual exhausts, and chrome side mirrors. Various paint imperfections on the hood and fenders are described by the seller.
Polished Cragar wheels are mounted with Cooper Cobra Radial G/T white-letter tires. A full-size spare is found in the trunk.
The cabin houses seats trimmed in black vinyl with a matching dashboard and door panels. Equipment includes lap belts for all occupants, air conditioning, a Hurst shifter, and an Audiovox AM/FM cassette stereo wired to speakers on the rear parcel shelf.
A three-spoke steering wheel sits ahead of a 120-mph speedometer and a 7k-rpm tachometer surrounded by auxiliary displays. The five-digit odometer shows approximately 60k miles, around 2k of which have been added during current ownership. Total mileage is unknown.
The replacement 454ci V8 was installed during previous ownership and reportedly features an upgraded camshaft and cylinder heads, along with a chrome air cleaner cover with 396 branding. The seller notes that the engine will diesel if it is not idled before being shut off.
Power is sent to the rear wheels via a four-speed manual transmission. The seller believes the gearbox and rear end are replacement items. Additional underside photos are provided in the gallery.
