BODY OVERVIEW:
This 1972 Chevrolet Chevelle Malibu is a beautiful and authentic survivor, having covered just 51,400 actual miles. In its original, unrestored condition, it offers a rare glimpse into the past. With its family-friendly 4-door configuration, this Malibu provides an intriguing blend of practicality and nostalgia. Sitting on a set of rally wheels and new Cooper Cobra tires, this thing looks great! Additionally, the original steel wheels and wheel covers are included. The body has weathered the years gracefully, though dings and imperfections are present. Please note that there is some visible corrosion behind the rear wheels, as seen in the photos, but otherwise this car is a remarkably clean for a vehicle that has not seen a restoration in its 54 years on the road! 

PAINT CONDITION OVERVIEW:
This Chevelle Malibu is wearing what appears to be an older repaint of its original two-tone colors (Mulsanne Blue and Antique White). There are flaws in the paint that are to be expected with an older repaint, all badges and chrome are present and in good condition. As a whole, the paint shows well, but should be considered "driver quality." We have done our best to represent the paint condition accurately in the photos. 

INTERIOR CONDITION OVERVIEW:
The interior of this Malibu remains largely in its original state, echoing the classic design aesthetics of the early '70s. The cabin retains the authentic feel of a bygone era, with blue cloth & vinyl seats, blue carpet, blue doors, and a blue dash, something you certainly won't see on a family sedan these days! The original steering wheel, gauges, and vents really makes this Chevelle a true time capsule. The original stereo has been long replaced with an Audiovox cassette deck. The driver's seat does need some love as it has a temporary cover on it beneath which is some exposed foam. Much like the exterior, when dealing with a car that has not seen a restoration, some flaws are to be anticipated and this Chevelle presents well! Overall, the interior is in remarkable original condition and wear is consistent with a car that likely made a lot of short trips. 

MECHANICAL OVERVIEW:
Under the hood lies ol' reliable, a 350ci V8 engine. This powerplant offers the performance expected from a classic Chevrolet small block, delivering a balance of power and drivability. As is often the case with a car that hasn't been taken apart, the engine is surprisingly quiet and smooth. This car fires up extremely easily, even in cold weather, and has adequate power for a car this size. The 3-speed automatic transmission allows for smooth and effortless shifting, making this Malibu a joy to drive. The factory-optional power steering works as it should, and this Chevelle can truly be driven with one finger--it's that easy! Manual drum brakes aren't everyone's taste, but this car stops well. This is an Idaho car and one thing to note is the heater plug to keep the car in top shape through the winter months. Though no longer necessary, the coolant heater is a cool piece of history tied to this vehicle! This is a turn-key car ready to cruise today.
