Chevrolet Malibu 350 V8 1981

General description : SUPER CLEAN BUILD, BUILT 350 V8, EXCELLENT PAINT, WELD WHEELS, STOPLIGHT SLEEPER

This 1981 Chevrolet Malibu is a hammer in search of nails. Purpose-built to be a street/strip threat, it's combat-ready with a strong-running small block, full race gauges, and mean green paint.
The chiseled good looks of this GM intermediates have aged rather well, and the real secret behind this one is the level of quality. Pro-Street machines often look like their body panels were bolted on like an afterthought to keep the car street legal. Instead, this Malibu has a professional level panel fit that is highlighted by a nice glossy respray of its factory Light Jadestone color. Of course no one will mistake this coupe for some regular survivor. It has seriously aggressive custom features such as tinted headlights, blacked-out taillights, sleeker body colored bumpers front & rear, hood pins, and the iconic black SS stripe package. And even if somehow all of those features were missed, no one could ever deny the performance appearance of the fiberglass hood with massive power bulge. The final touch is the set of 15-inch Weld wheels with staggered tire size for that aggressive racer stance.
Open the door, and you'll see the same green and black color scheme on the exterior is continued inside this Chevy. The custom layout gives the bench seats a nice cloth insert for individual comfort. It feels kinda cool that the driver gets the original Malibu wheel, because everything else fees very custom. It starts with the large AutoMeter tach mounted on the steering column that has a shift light so you can take full advantage of the floor-mounted line-lock shifter. There are not only matching gauges on the dash, but also fuel and pressure readouts are mounted within the cowl induction hood. This one might feel like a racecar right down to the toggle switches on the dash, but the AM/FM/CD stereo reminds you that this one can also just be fun for cruising on a Saturday night.
You won't be disappointed when you life the hood. Not only does the 350 cubic-inch small block shine nicely in the tidy engine bay, but also it's been built with some serous power in mind. The performance upgrades include Quick Fuel 750 CFM carburetor, Edelbrock intake, MSD Ignition with adjustable timer, large K&N air filter, and performance long tube headers. With this total package, you better believe there's a wicked growl coming from the dual exhaust. To handle all this power there is GM's trusty TH350 three-speed automatic that feeds an upgraded rear end. The control comes from the wide 28x11.5 Mickey Thompson tires in the rear and disc brakes up front.
Fast, affordable, and very custom, this cool little Malibu delivers big in the areas that matter most. You don't need to spend a big pile of cash to have a bunch of fun, and this car is proof. Call today!!!

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.
