Chevrolet Malibu 565 CID V8 1971
General description :
For sale in out Chicago showroom is this purpose-built 1971 Chevrolet Malibu. Sporting a massive 565 cubic inch Big Block Chevy V8 built around a stout Dart “Big M” block, this Malibu is ready to thrash. Needless to say, the rest of the driveline is built to handle the punishment. A beefy TH-400 transmission with a manual valvebody gives all the benefits of selecting your own gears, without the headache of sourcing a strong enough clutch. The GM 12-bolt rear eng was fitted with Strange axles and is plenty capable of handling the 925 horsepower dying to burn through the tires. With a slick coat of Royal Blue paint and the obligatory white stripe laid down about 5 years ago, it still shines great and gets plenty of looks. The interior, while fairly stripped, still has all of the necessities to take you ¼ mile at a time. An overhead switch panel controls all the engine controls, i.e. cooling fans, ignition, and starter, and an assortment of gauges make sure if something with the engine gets a bit funky, you’ll know about it. Step this monster up to the line, arm the trans-brake, wind up the engine, and blast this rocket down the drag strip at consistent low-10 second passes. Options include: Seat Belts, Racing Wheels, Racing Tires, and a Vinyl Interior. For more HD photos and an HD video of the vehicle running and driving, please contact our Chicago showroom at (708) 444-4488 or Chicago@GatewayClassicCars.com.

About Chevrolet
Chevrolet aka Chevy, founded in 1911 by Louis Chevrolet and William C. Durant is the best selling and biggest brand by General Motors -mainly due to low pricing. No wonder Chevy the "working man's car" has become such an iconic part of Americana in films and pop-culture.
When talking about Chevy one must not ignore Chevrolet small-block V8 the world's most produced engine that has been in production since 1955 and still going strong.
Surprisingly, "America's only sports car" Corvette was introduced under Chevrolet brand rather than its own. To us the most memorable Corvette has to be The second generation (C2) Corvette, Sting Ray.
To compete with VW Beatle Chevrolet introduced Corvair a compact automobile built in 1960–1969 It was the only American designed, mass-produced passenger car to feature a rear-mounted air-cooled engine. Corvair handling was deemed notoriously bad mainly due to Ralph Nader's Unsafe at Any Speed. Although, any handling issues were soon solved the reputation did stick.
With Pony / Muscle car mania taking over the Americans, following the introduction of Ford Mustang, Chevrolet came up with one of its most famous models Camaro. During the first year alone they managed to sell 220,906 Camaros.
