Vehicle Detail
I'm selling a 1969 Chevelle Malibu SS 396 wannabe project. This Chevelle has great bones to start with for someone who has the skills to do the work themselves, and doesn't want to spend big bucks buying one already complete and can do it the way they want it done. So here we go; The front fenders need the lower sections repaired/replaced. Radiator support will need attention within the center section, or you can reuse as is, as you won't see it with the radiator installed (your choice). Both inner front wheel wells are good and metal. It has a steel SS hood in great shape. Firewall looks good with a small hole someone cut for AC hoses (approx 2"x2"). Frame horns look good and straight, as well as the rest of the frame. Both A pillars look good as well as the lower windshield cowl area, and the roof looks good. Both rear sail panels are solid, and the area around the rear window is decent, but will need attention within the lower section, but still retains a majority of the original trim clips. The upper trunk cowl is good (below rear window) and the seal area around the trunk is solid. Trunk lid is good needing minimal attention. The trunk will need a center section installed (or you can fiberglass if you choose). The inner rear wheel wells look good. The tail light panel is decent as well as both tail light housings. The car will need new lower qtr panels replaced. Both inner and outter rockers are good, but the lower rear corner of the drivers side jamb will need some minor attention. The cabin floor will need the driver side foot well replaced, and the shifter hole within the tunnel will need to be squared away. Soemone, Bless their heart, has installed an under dash AC unit in the glove box area, but I have the glove box door to reinstall. You can keep the AC unit! :) All glass appears to have a factory tint, but the windshield has a small rock chip. All window trim is there, and all windows roll up and down, as well as all door mechanisms are intact. It has SS front door panels which look good enough to redye. It only has the rear seat with the high dollar custom upholstery from back in the day. :) I have a 69 396 BBC bare block and heads that also go with the car, no trans but the cross member is there. Non posi 10 bolt rear with vintage traction bars installed. The column shift steering column has a broken key in it, but I purchased a good floor shift steering column with key here off ebay that also goes with the Chevelle. The only parts I have other than mentioned here, are in the picture. Again, finding Chevelle's is easy. Finding Project Chevelle's that dont cost you an arm and a leg isn't. Here's your chance! Please remember this is a Project, but with a little elbow grease and skill, will be a nice ride. The pictures of this Chevelle, does do this car justice! We quickly painted it black to look good from the curb. Our neighbors forget about all the late nights and weekends we spent getting their kids first cars running and looking good, so trying to keep them from calling the man! Will deliver within 150 miles of VA zipcode 23322 for $100 bucks, but only sell within the boundaries of the Good Ol'e USofA. My feedback also shows I'm a decent guy to work with. Thanks for looking and good luck!On Feb-26-12 at 03:46:21 PST, seller added the following information: Thanks for everyones interest and all the questions. I was planning on posting all the questions, but with checking my email this morning, the amount of interest would take me some time, so I'm going to summarize most of them now, and try to keep up and post them as we go; I've had the block and heads for a long time just sitting around and have decided to clean out a little bit. This Chevelle does have some bondo repair as I can tell around the lower qtr panels, lower fenders, etc., noting why I recommended replacing them. The dash pad will need replacing, the wire harness does appear to be intact, but I have no idea whats good and isn't good, but there. The front SS door panels are green and the rear Malibu panels are blue. Not my favorite color combo, but I'm sure the wife would use those colors somewhere! Both bumpers are not worth replating (in my opinion) as replacement ones would be cheaper. You are not going to throw in a drivetrain and start winning trophies yet. I bought this Chevelle a while ago thinking I would get to it, but realizing I probably wont, and not going to give it to my son to drag race and become my money pit. Although he promises it won't, I love drag racing! :) A $1000 starting bid with no reserve auction is not to rip anyone off, but to get it out of here and give some folks who have the talent to have an oppurtunity to have their dream car. I own a 60 Chevy Pro Touring Biscayne that we did a frame off, currently doing a frame off on a 49 Chevy 5 window pickup for the Bride, with a 60 Chevy Nomad wagon in the bull pin waiting, so it would be years before I got to the Chevelle, and hate to continue seeing it sit outside. I'm not going to part it out, but appreciate the offers. Thanks and good luck.
