A freshly overhauled 1969 Chevrolet Chevelle Malibu Sport Coupe with a modern performance twist is turning heads on the collector market, blending its vintage roots with contemporary upgrades that make it ready for weekend cruises and track thrills alike.
Offered on dealer consignment with an Arizona title, this meticulously restored Chevelle is powered by a thoroughly refreshed 396-cubic-inch V8, upgraded in 2023 with an Edelbrock Top End kit, COMP camshaft, Holley Sniper EFI, and Trick Flow hydraulic lifters. The engine is rated at 384 horsepower and 411 lb-ft of torque. It’s paired to a rebuilt Muncie M22 “Rock Crusher” four-speed manual transmission, now equipped with a high-performance clutch for improved driveability and response.
Finished in a deep black exterior—believed to have been refinished during its restoration—the car’s aggressive stance is accentuated by a twin-domed hood, SS trim, and 17-inch American Racing Torq Thrust wheels wrapped in BFGoodrich g-Force T/A tires. A modern adjustable suspension system from Ridetech includes coilovers, tubular control arms, and front and rear sway bars. Wilwood brakes—six-piston front and four-piston rear—deliver serious stopping power via slotted and drilled rotors.
Inside, the cabin retains its classic bench seating layout but adds modern conveniences like Vintage Air climate control, Dakota Digital gauges, a retro-look Bluetooth stereo, and a Hurst shifter. Additional upgrades include a kill switch, LED lighting, and a stealthily integrated audio system.
Originally built in Baltimore with Parchment vinyl and LeMans Blue paint, this Chevelle now lives on as a resto-modded muscle car that balances brute force with driveable comfort. With just 600 miles added since its rebuild, it’s poised to offer one lucky new owner the best of both old and new.
