1970 Chevrolet Chevelle Malibu convertible Resto-Mod powered by a professionally built supercharged 496 c.i. Chevy Big Block putting out an estimated 850 h.p.!! The current owner & builder has owned the Malibu for 18 years and less than 2 years ago decided to freshen it up a little by adding a new engine, interior, top, and paint job. It is the true definition of “Show & Go”. The car has been driven less than 2500 miles since its rebuild, always garage kept, and was never raced or abused.

NO TRADES

In the way of bodywork, the only original metal is the frame, trunk lid, cowl, and firewall.

New floors, front fenders, inner fenders, rear quarter panels, door skins, and hood were added. A complete photo album of the build accompanies the car as well as the receipts for the work and parts.

With regards to the new interior, the entire car was re-wired using a new harness. The fuel system was also upgraded with a fuel sump, Aero electric fuel pump and ½ braided lines which includes a return line to the tank.

The only ‘issue’ with the car is the speedometer/odometer gear needs to be replaced. Stopped working about 1000 miles ago.

Listed below are the specifics.

This Chevrolet Resto-Mod is a multiple show winner and draws a crowd wherever it goes.

Owner is selling for personal reasons.

PLEASE BUY WITH CONFIDENCE

I have been an active eBay seller of cars and other items for since 2002 and maintained a close to a 100% rating during most of that period. Around 2011 I started an online service assisting owners of Classic, Vintage, and Muscle cars to sell their vehicles without them leaving the garage. These are private individual owners who do not want to deal with the public and all of the endless phone calls, “Tire kickers”, and other nonsense that goes on when trying to sell a car. They just want someone to sell it!!
