Frame Off Restored Chevelle SS Convertible 327/350 HP L79 V8 4 Speed /// This clean Malibu Super Sport, with its correct L79, correct Muncie 4-speed and classy red on red aesthetics, is the perfect piece for the muscle car fan who enjoys hitting the road OR the show! Fully sorted and ready to cruise, this authentic code 138 drop-top recently benefitted from a thorough, frame-off restoration. Under the car's correct Regal Red 2-stage, an incredibly straight fuselage features solid panels... that, with the exception of their recent massage, have led a quiet, drama-free existence. By the end of that massage, those panels featured better-than-factory alignment and, when opened and closed, sounded firm and functioned exceptionally well. And today, this glossy Chevy is one fantastic looking hot rod that parks just as well as it plays! Motivating this real-deal Super Sport is an exclusive L79 V8 that, according to the factory, twists stout 11 to 1 compression into 350 Corvette-matching horsepower. Behind that stout mill, a correct Muncie 4-speed twists a tough 10-bolt axle. Efficient turns and confident stops are the product of GM-spec drums and a Saginaw steering box. And power flows through 14-inch steelies, which spin 7.75 BF Goodrich Silvertown whitewalls around red-detailed Super Sport discs. Pop this A-Body's solid doors and you'll find a correct Medium Red interior that's a true thing of beauty. In the middle of that cockpit, sharp Strato bucket seats are in excellent shape and show little to no signs of wear. In front of those seats, a Regal Red dash hangs standard telemetry between a fresh pad, gorgeous chrome trim and a modern, direct-fit radio. And in front of the driver, a satin, speed-drilled steering wheel spins a faux Rosewood rim around a red, white and blue horn button. In summary, this top-notch Chevy represents 'muscle motoring' at its very finest, combining a drop-top driving experience with stunning design, a clean restoration and no-excuses performance.
