HISTORY

Before we dive in to visuals lets take a minute to examine this Chevys history and documentation. For starters aside from roughly 400 extremely rare L89 cars 375 horsepower L78 cars like this exclusive brown-on-black coupe were the absolute best Chevelle 1969 money could buy. That said all Chevelle fans know its pretty rare to find ANY Build Sheet in 69 cars making them very difficult to authenticate. Commonly 69 Chevelles left the factory with a combination of the following three things: 1) A partial Build Sheet 2) Hand-written notes or 3) Nothing at all. Fortunately this classic was equipped with a partial Build Sheet AND hand-written notes. While that partial Build Sheet does not list a VIN it does list the cars original dealer: Dworkin Chevrolet of Derby Connecticut which is confirmed by an official NCRS Shipping Data Report. And among options codes for stuff like tinted windows and buckets seats it calls out an L78 big block and correct Super Sport ornamentation. The note found with that Build Sheet lists 13637 A51 D55 and M22 which translates to a Malibu sport coupe optioned with bucket seats a center console and a Muncie Rock Crusher transmission. So essentially what youre looking at is a documented top-option Chevelle that features the added benefit of a rare brown brown and black color combination.
