1980 Chevrolet Malibu Sport Coupe - 396 Big Block

1980 Chevrolet Malibu Sport Coupe Additional Info:

I purchased this car a few years ago from a Muscle Car Museum in Georgia and have used it as a casual driver and for car shows and cruise in's since. Never used as a race car by me. The car runs and drives smooth. I don't know much about the engine and transmission as i did not build them and put them in the car myself but what i do know is that it's a 396 cubic inch big block Chevrolet mated to a 3 speed automatic transmission. It is geared to allow it to drive comfortably on the highway but to also have a lot of torque in low gear and has a 12 bolt posi-trac rear end. Never had any issues with the motor or transmission. It's a very powerful car. The AC system was removed when the new engine was put in years ago. The car was repainted a few years ago at some point which was done very well as the paint does show very nicely but does have some blemishes from driving such small paint chips and scratches. I would consider the exterior to be a 8/10 and the interior to be a 7/10. The interior is all original and has never been replaced or recovered. The front bench seat has a tear in it and the carpet is worn but is in good shape overall considering it's age. I would not hesitate to jump in it and drive this car anywhere as i have before in the past but as with all older/classic vehicles expect the car to have usual wear and tear and possibly exhibit some minor problems and imperfections in the future. I am selling this vehicle locally as well and reserve the right to end the auction at any time should it become unavailable. I can assist the buyer with shipping the vehicle. Any questions please ask.
