This 1969 Chevrolet Chevelle Malibu sport coupe is powered by a 454ci V8 that utilizes an Edelbrock intake manifold and a performance cooling system, and it was installed before the seller’s acquisition of the vehicle in 2022. The car is finished in silver with black bodyside stripes over red vinyl upholstery, and it rides on a modified suspension with Bilstein shocks and performance control arms along with American Racing Torq Thrust wheels that are mounted over Wilwood front disc brakes. Further details include a TH400 three-speed automatic transmission, a twin-domed hood, a black grille, a “slap-shift” horseshoe-style shifter, Vintage Air climate control, Dakota Digital gauges, and a retro-look Bluetooth receiver. This modified Malibu is offered with spare parts and a clean Massachusetts title in the names of the seller and their spouse.

The body has been refinished in silver with black accent stripes along the bodysides. Details include a twin-domed hood, a black grille, aftermarket headlights, hideaway windshield wipers, and chrome bumpers.

American Racing 15″ Torq Thrust II wheels are mounted with BFGoodrich Radial T/A white-letter tires. The car is equipped with power steering, and the suspension has been fitted with UMI Performance lower control arms, Hotchkis tubular front A-arms, Bilstein shocks, and front and rear sway bars. Braking is handled by power-assisted Wilwood front discs and rear drums, and a line lock is installed. An alignment is required.

The front bucket and rear bench seats are upholstered in red vinyl, and a horseshoe-style shifter with a slap-shift detent is found in the color-keyed center console. The seller notes that the carpeting and door panels have been replaced. Appointments include a Bluetooth audio receiver, JVC speakers, a USB port, and Vintage Air climate control.

The tilting aftermarket steering wheel frames factory-style Dakota Digital instrumentation including a 120-mph speedometer, an analog clock, a tachometer, and a combination gauge for voltage, oil pressure, temperature, and fuel level. The five-digit odometer shows 81k miles, approximately 1k of which were added under current ownership. Total mileage is unknown.

The seller tells us the 454ci V8 was decked and bored-over .030″ before it was installed under previous ownership, and that it has a 10.5:1 compression ratio. It is further equipped with an Edelbrock intake manifold, a serpentine accessory drive setup, a high-torque starter, a high-output alternator, and an aluminum radiator with twin electric fans.

The TH400 three-speed automatic transmission is fitted with a performance torque converter, per the seller, and it is linked with a 12-bolt PosiTraction rear end. Oil drips from the engine and transmission are noted. Long-tube headers link to a dual exhaust system with Flowmaster mufflers.
