1978 Chevrolet Malibu, 383 Stroker, 420 Horsepower, Custom Paint and Wheels
This 1978 Chevrolet Malibu combines classic late-70s styling with a powerful drivetrain and custom touches. Finished in eye-catching custom paint and riding on aftermarket wheels, this Malibu stands out as a unique street rod with plenty of personality.
Under the hood is a 350 cubic-inch engine that was professionally bored to 383 cubic inches. The previous owner reported an estimated 420 horsepower output. When the car was at a new Chevrolet dealership in Inverness, Florida, the original motor suffered a piston failure; at that time the crate engine currently installed in the car and also had transmission work completed. Since then, the engine has remained low mileage and well cared for.
This car was not purchased to race or abuse it’s been appreciated as a great example of a street rod, originally displayed in a dealership showroom.
While we do our best to provide the highest quality muscle cars with an honest and reliable description and realize the importance of transparency when selling vehicles. That being said, we have not built, modified, changed or personally owned this vehicle. Whether this vehicle is consigned or owned by Past & Present Motor Cars we do not know the vehicles complete history since new. We want to be clear and try to answer any questions our customers might have prior to purchasing. Additionally, we not only welcome but we encourage 3rd party independent inspections. Please inquire prior to purchase to make sure the advertised vehicle has not already been sold. We list our vehicles on multiple websites and a vehicle can sell at any time. If a customer chooses to purchase sight unseen (many of our customers choose this option) the customer accepts the vehicle AS IS and WHERE IS and understands we cannot address concerns after purchase. For this reason, it's important all concerns are addressed prior to purchase. We make every effort to present accurate and reliable information, but use of this information is voluntary, and should only be deemed reliable after an independent review of its accuracy, completeness, and timeliness. It is the sole responsibility of the customer to verify the existence of options, accessories and the vehicle condition before time of sale. Financing is Available with low rates and Vehicle Shipping is available from our Showroom to your Garage. A Classic Car Warranty is Available for Purchase from a 3rd Party.
