My 1970 Chevelle Malibu Convertible is a fully documented (all the way to polaroids and the original dealer bill of sale) originally California built car (with top tier desirable VIN) that recently completed $100,000+ pro-touring restoration to blend top down classic cruising with full race and muscle performance. The resto-mod style car was stripped down to the bare frame, coated, refinished in a semi-gloss black (with the SS style stripes in gloss) and built up with all new components (top, finishings, etc. included). The lightweight, hand-built, and bulletproof aluminum 427 stroker V8 (commissioned from a revered competition winning engine builder) is mated to a modern ceramic clutch and built Tremec TKO transmission to make a perfectly steerable and linear 650+ horsepower (on standard pump gas with dyno sheets). This sits on a built out tubular suspension and forged race wheels (with pilot super sport rubber) to drive as well as it looks and sounds. Car has been professionally maintained and will overshadow a McLarens in any parking lots (plus is about as fast but definitely more fun). Car currently sits in a temperature and humidity monitored garage in west Los Angeles with title and history in hand and less than 600 miles on the completed build. Only selling as a personal situation forces it, feel free to message with any questions or schedule to see the car. Build specifics below:
*Note: -Would cost more than double asking to replicate anything similar
-Watched two lower tier comparable cars build hammer at Barrett Jackson this year for north of $125k
-After inquiry, primarily looking to sell but may consider a trade if really intriguing (GT3 Z06 GT350 etc.)
