HIGHLIGHTS:
Survivor Car!
Low Mileage: Just 51,000 Actual Miles!
Unrestored, largely original
350ci V8 Engine
3-Speed Automatic Transmission
BODY OVERVIEW:
This 1972 Chevrolet Chevelle Malibu stands as an authentic survivor, having covered just 51,380 actual miles. In its original, unrestored condition, it offers a rare glimpse into the past. With its classic 4-door configuration, this Malibu provides an intriguing blend of practicality and nostalgia. The body has weathered the years gracefully, though dings and imperfections are present. Please note that there is some visible corrosion behind the rear wheels, as seen in the photos, but otherwise this car is a remarkably clean for a vehicle that has not seen a restoration.
PAINT CONDITION OVERVIEW:
This Chevelle Malibu is wearing what appears to be an older repaint of its original two-tone colors (Mulsanne Blue and Antique White). There are flaws in the paint that are to be expected with an older repaint, all badges and chrome are present and in good condition. As a whole, the paint has a good luster and presents nicely!
INTERIOR CONDITION OVERVIEW:
The interior of this Malibu remains largely in its original state, echoing the design aesthetics of the early '70s. The cabin retains the authentic feel of a bygone era, with blue cloth & vinyl seats, blue carpet, blue doors, and a blue dash providing a comfortable and inviting atmosphere. The original steering wheel, gauges, and vents really makes this Chevelle a true time capsule. The original stereo has been long replaced with an Audiovox cassette deck. The driver's seat does need some love as it has a temporary cover on it beneath which is some exposed foam. Much like the exterior, when dealing with a car that has not seen a restoration, some flaws are to be anticipated and this Chevelle presents well!
MECHANICAL OVERVIEW:
Under the hood lies the reliable heart of this Malibu, a 350ci V8 engine. This powerplant offers the performance expected from a classic Chevrolet small block, delivering a balance of power and drivability. The 3-speed automatic transmission allows for smooth and effortless shifting, making this Malibu a joy to drive. This is an Idaho car and one thing to note is the heater plug to keep the car in top shape through the winter months. Though no longer necessary, the coolant heater is a cool piece of history tied to this vehicle!
WHAT YOU'LL LOVE ABOUT THIS CAR:
This 1972 Chevrolet Chevelle Malibu with only 51,000 actual miles is a captivating piece of automotive history. It offers an authentic, unmodified experience, allowing you to step back in time and appreciate the enduring appeal of this classic--and with four doors, you can do it with the whole family! The 350ci V8 engine provides reliable power, and the 4-door configuration adds a practical touch to the nostalgia.
WHAT YOU MIGHT HATE ABOUT THIS CAR:
Buyers seeking a fully restored, showroom-condition vehicle might find the patina and signs of age on this Chevelle Malibu less appealing. However, for those who value originality and history, these features add to the car's charm. If you are looking for a car to win the top prizes at a car show then you should probably pass on this one--this is a car to be driven and enjoyed.
