Youre looking at the rare opportunity to own the end of an era. This 1972 Chevrolet Chevelle Malibu convertible represents the last of the Chevelle droptops. Less than 5and#44;000 were produced in this final yearand#44; so its great to see such a significant and rare car with its believed to be 48and#44;000 original milesand#44; numbers matching V8and#44; factory interiorand#44; and wearing its correct shade of bright red. Code 75 Cranberry Red is the cars original colorand#44; but when the sunlight hits this convertibleand#44; you instantly tell it has a shine thats as nice as they came from factory in 1972. The extra luster is courtesy of a professional resprayand#44; and lets face itand#44; we all love a shiny red convertible. This one did not get the SS treatment added during its lifetimeand#44; and instead wears its premium Malibu personality with pride. And its this upper class distinction that lets you enjoy the exceptionally straight sheetmetal with gentle curvesand#44; well-defined creasesand#44; and flowing front hood. A car this solid and nice deserves the best brightworkand#44; so everything from the delicate wheel arch trimand#44; to the big chrome bumpers have a mirror-like presence. And speaking of the bumpersand#44; 1972 was also the last year before federal standards took overand#44; so we appreciate how artfully theyre integrated into the overall design Black is always a beautiful choice for Chevelle interiors. This one looks especially well preserved and originaland#44; which tells you there was a lot of care taken when the top was down. But the power folding roof will help with watertight motoring when the sky turns gray. These might have been the midsize Chevys back in the dayand#44; but there is plenty of room for you to carry all your friends and family with the two rows of bench seats. Plusand#44; everyone can even stay entertained thanks to the updated AM/FM/cassette stereo and upgraded speakers. But a convertible like this is really about the driver. Thats why you get the factory two-spoke steering wheel that gives you a commanding view of the old-school speedometer thats about as long as the horizon. A car this interesting is going to get shown off. So the engine bay makes sure to live up to your expectations with a highly originaland#44; and exceptionally tidyand#44; presentation of the verified numbers-matching 350 cubic-inch V8. More than just shiny elements like the valve covers and air grabberand#44; the high gloss on the hoses and the bright orange on the block let you know that there have been investments in care and maintenance. And while this looks like a highly original Malibuand#44; the moment you twist the key it has a little extra growl like it was an SS. Thats thanks to the recent addition of the Pypes X-pipe dual exhaust to exhale fromand#44; and the 4 barrel carburetor to inhale. Soand#44; this Chevelle has nice V8 power and a little extra attitude. Out on the roadand#44; the power steeringand#44; TH350 three-speed automatic transmissionand#44; power front disc brakesand#44; and new Goodyear rubber on the Rally wheel package all come together to give you an easyand#44; anytime cruising feeling.
