1968 Chevrolet Chevelle for sale
Current customer rating: (112 votes ) based onYou are bidding on a 1968 Chevelle Malibu built in Van Nuys and spent its entire life in California. Originally a 307/Powerglide combo in Grecian Green. now with a 355(350)/TH350 drivetrain in rattle can black. I had put about 12 years of work and a lot of money into the car. paint and interior were unfortunately the last things I was going to deal with. I will give you as much specific info as I can about the car but what I've done to the car has sat out of memory for about 5 years now as I have just completely got out of automotive stuff and am tired of seeing this thing sit and be treated as a table.
Engine:
-355 (350 bored . 030 over)-Stock cast iron block and crank-TRW Hyper-eutectic flat-top piston. running at ~10:1 comp. ratio-Stock rods fitted with 3/8" ARP bolts-Clevite bushings all around-Pro-Topline Cast iron heads: 2. 02/1. 60 valves. 72cc(?) comb. chambers. unknown cc of Intake/Exhaust runners-Harland Sharp 1. 6(?) Roller Rocker arms-Comp cams valvetrain springs/pushrods/hardware-Cam/lifters are a Summit Racing set-up; mild-ish profile. hydraulic flat-tappet lifters-Edelbrock Performer RPM aluminum manifold-Fel-Pro gaskets throughout-Holley 750cfm 3310 four barrel carb. vacuum secondarys-Mallory HEI distributor. MSD plug wires-Blackjack headers-Cast iron water pump (performance pump of some sort?)-Carter mechanical fuel pump

Drivetrain:-TH350 rebuilt by me. Transgo stage 2 shift-kit-Hurst Quarter Stick Shifter w/ Hurst Shift Cable-Stock Driveshaft with replaced grease-able u-joints-Stock 10 bolt. 8. 2 ring gear size with somewhere around a 3. 10:1 gear ratio
Suspension & Steering:-Stock control arms all around. front bushings completely replaced with Moog rubber bushings. rear bushings untouched-New Moog springs all round-KYB shocks all around-Poly-urethane sway bar bushings and body mounts-New style GM jounce bumpers-Steering linkages and power steering system components all replaced (stock replacement style)
Brakes:-Originally four wheel drum. now has single piston caliper disk brakes up front. rebuilt rear drum brakes-All new brakes lines (steel braided flex lines. steel solid lines)-New emergency brake cables that are adjusted correctly
Electrical:-New alternator. new permanent magnet style starter-Battery/charging cables replaced with hefty gauge wiring-Basically a brand-new wiring harness; dash harness is mostly stock but all old/cracked wires replaced;everything else brand-new; wired up the MAD Electrical improved Headlight wiring system
Interior:-Not a great part of the car-Dash: Most gauges work. Autometer water temp gauge does not work(temp sender I believe is bad. has happened before);dash panel was in bad shape kinda so I cut up the radio/heater control section and added a gauge cluster (not the best move afterall); dash pad cracked; most other trim is there outside of one A/C vent ball (which I believe I have one or two in the parts pile that will come with the car). -Seats: Fronts are not stock but kinda comfy? Will provide a stock replacement bucket seat from another similar A-body (cant remember which side); rears are stock. bottom cushion has hole in vinyl-Door panels are bad. will supply all frames so all you would need to do is recover them. -Headliner has been replaced. probably the best part of the interior
Exterior:-Most. if not all weatherstripping has been replaced-Driver side fender and most rear sheet metal has been replaced by me; needs a coat of body filler to cover up weld lines on quarter panels as I only did partial quarter replacements-Passenger fender needs to be replaced-Front end tweaked slightly enough to cause pass. fender to have very little gap between it and door; door opens ok now but didn't in the past (door/fender gap shows issue of the rubbing)-Core support was cut to try and remove dent/damage. only has sheet metal screwed to it to close the gap. needs to be welded -Still a rust hole in the driver side kick panel area-Various dents and dings all over body panels and bumpers-Paint is crap. that is all-Worst part of the car but is solid. there is no rattles or strange sounds going over bumps
Again. this is very much a project car but one you wouldn't need to do much. if anything really. to get it driveable again. This car needs a good home desperately!!!!
On May-07-17 at 10:09:04 PDT. seller added the following information:
*I have a whole mess of parts that can come with the car if winning bidder wants them. I have a LQ4 6. 0 short block (minus rods and pistons). BBC -049 cylinder heads. various SBC parts (generic smog era heads. valvetrain parts. etc. ). BBC oil pan and pump. Holley 650cfm 4 barrel (kinda rough condition). bunch of other stuff that I can't think of at the moment. *
*Also. the entire choke mechanism was removed from the carb thats on the car. so it's sometimes temperamental when starting after sitting for a while. a blast of starting fluid gets it fired right up though*
