CAR COVER

This beautiful 1964 Malibu, GM’s first year for the A body, is not a frame off resto/mod. The body and paint in the attached photos are exactly the same as the day I bought the car, so my opinion at that time was that no frame off restoration was needed. I did, however, at the end of all the work, spend a fair amount to have the paint receive a soft sanding and then a buff and polish which brought it up to an incredible shine. Friends say it looks show-room new.
My main goal in buying the car was to turn it into a top flight American muscle car using the best “all new” parts I could find, as the list above demonstrates.
Basically, everything under the hood and body is new, except for the gas tank. Today it looks fantastic, sounds fantastic, drives solid and is really fast.
All work was done by Schrader’s Speed and Style Shop in Azusa, California. No expense was spared, which the owner, Mike Schrader, will confirm if serious buyers wish to speak with him. www.schradersspeedandstyleshop.com
At this point, in my opinion, the car is an investment for the new buyer; a value that, I believe, will increase with care and additional interior upgrades.
Truthfully this Malibu will now be someone else’s gain as this incredible car is fresh and ready to go. And trust me; it is a real head-turner. People—even firemen driving to an emergency-- have stared and given me thumbs up when passing by.
Items needing attention: Horn doesn’t work. Also, the aftermarket radio sits loose as I’ve been searching for an original used factory AM radio to keep the original look of the dash. Rubber around both front vent windows needs replacingand small bits of film over body side molding are loose or gone. Also, the gas gage is a bit erratic.
Car is sold as is. No warranty implied or expressed but the restoration is fresh and the shop that did all the work can be called directly by going onto website above.
