Interesting '69 Malibu, Orig 307/4-speed/Buckets/etc

[scuncio]

Cool car - and I'm pretty confident this one crossed the block a few years ago for around $20k. Not a lot of unmolested SB 4-speed cars left.

Sold new at Brooklyn Chevrolet in Cleveland.

Might just be the lighting in that picture, but it sure doesn't look like Frost green to me. The other pictures in the ad don't help either. Nice car nonetheless.

The wheels look to be Frost green, not the car.

"survivor, time capsule" only ONE repaint, years ago and as has been pointed out, not really the correct color.
The buckets and 4 speed do add to the fun and coolness, but 45k worth ??

45k worth ??

:no:

How strange is it that the OO chose to put 350 fender emblems on a car with a 307? Back in the day, we were doing just the opposite, trying to downplay the engine size :confused:

Interesting car. A little steep on the price for a 307 car, but does appear to be in relatively decent shape. My 69 Camaro (307/glide car) was sold new at this dealership. OO of the Camaro (Justine S.) was only a few blocks away from the dealership.

Many years back, I pulled a ton of parts off a 307/3speed Malibu that was sold new at this dealership. The wrecking yard was literally across the street from Brooklyn Chevrolet. New to dismantle in this case. Car still had the smog system on it.

----Bill,,, It's funny you bring this up. In 62 when I was 15 a friend that I grew up withs mother bought a 62 Ford XL convert with a 352. My buddy was a year older than me and had his drivers license so we pried the car away from his Mom as often as we could. I worked at my Dads hardware store a few doors up the street from a Ford dealer and went to the parts dept and ordered two 390 emblems and 2 427 emblems. I ground off the studs and we glued the emblems (not all at once) in the appropriate spot on the car. As young absolutely clueless idiots we felt we were gaining some kind of cred at the local drive-ins. Today I'm posative every older guy would just listen and laugh when the 427 emblems were attached!....Bill S
