1972 Chevelle Malibu 2-Door Sport Coupe (Big-Block "SS Clone") in good condition. Fun to drive. Gets lots of attention! Drag-car setup with racing seats and harnesses roll cage and no back seat. Solid all-metal body with no rust. Paint has some chipping around the edges (see video) but looks good from 10 feet away. Not a full race car; not a full street machine. Great car for cruising around town or for taking a few passes down the drag strip. I've owned this car since 2002. I've made very few changes to it over the years. It was pretty much as you see it here when I purchased it. I purchased the car in AZ from the son of the guy who built the car but the son was not able to provide many technical details about the car. One regret that I've always had is that I did not make the purchase contingent upon getting details about the internal engine specifications. Here is a "walk-around and start-up" video from 2013 that shows some of the cosmetic defects in the paint: https://youtu.be/2oxAt6if4wc Here are some of the specifications:
