The engine is paired with a 3-speed automatic transmission, sending power to the rear wheels for a traditional muscle car driving experience. This setup ensures both reliability and smooth acceleration, while the LSX swap provides the durability and performance that modern enthusiasts appreciate. Altogether, this Chevelle Malibu delivers a seamless fusion of 1970s attitude and 21st-century engineering—a street-ready classic built to turn heads and deliver thrills.

1972 Chevrolet Chevelle SS Convertible

Current Ask
$95,000

The 1972 Chevrolet Chevelle SS Convertible is the kind of car that distills the classic American muscle era down to its essentials: big-block power, rear-wheel drive, bold SS styling, and the ability to drop the top and enjoy all of it in the open air. Finished in Cranberry Red over Black, this example has the visual drama to match its mechanical character, with black hood stripes, 15-inch 5-spoke SS wheels, and chrome bumpers giving it the right period stance. Underneath, the 396ci big-block V8 is backed by a TH400 3-speed automatic and a 12-bolt rear end with 3.73 gearing, a combination that gives this Chevelle the kind of low-end punch and cruising character enthusiasts associate with Chevrolet’s muscle-car heyday. Power steering, power front disc brakes, and Vintage Air climate control add usability without dulling the experience, making this a car that can be enjoyed for more than just short weekend drives.

The 1964 Chevrolet Chevelle Malibu SS Sport Coupe helped establish the formula that would soon define the American muscle-car era, and this example carries that character with a period-style 327ci V8, four-speed manual, and PosiTraction rear end. Showing approximately 86,570 miles, it is finished in black over a Medium Aqua vinyl interior and combines the clean lines of the first-year Chevelle SS with several tasteful performance upgrades. An Edelbrock intake, four-into-one headers, heavy-duty cooling radiator, Hurst shifter, and power-assisted front disc brakes all contribute to a package that feels purpose-built for an enthusiast who appreciates classic V8 power and manual-shift involvement.

The 1977 Chevrolet Corvette Coupe represents the later evolution of the C3, and this example brings a particularly appealing ownership story to the table. Showing approximately 72,741 miles, it is powered by an L48 350ci V8 with a Quadrajet 4-barrel carburetor and a 3-speed Turbo-Hydramatic automatic transmission. Finished in red over a black leather interior, it retains the classic C3 formula with removable T-top roof panels, Rally wheels, 4-wheel power disc brakes, and dual exhaust. Even more notable, the current owner reports that this has been a single-owner car and that they have been the sole driver since new.

The 1982 Chevrolet Corvette marked the end of the C3 era, making it a fitting final chapter for one of the Corvette’s most recognizable generations. This example shows approximately 50,346 miles and pairs its 350ci L83 V8 with Cross-Fire electronic fuel injection and a 700R4 4-speed automatic transmission. Finished in silver with a dark gray lower accent over a light gray leather interior, it carries the unmistakable late-C3 look with removable glass T-tops, factory alloy wheels, raised-white-letter tires, and the model’s sculpted front and rear aero treatment. An aftermarket air conditioning system adds a useful modern touch to a car that still feels very much rooted in the early-1980s Corvette experience.

$47,200

The 1972 Chevrolet Monte Carlo was built as Chevrolet’s personal-luxury coupe, but this example leans much harder into the muscle-car side of that formula. Showing approximately 69,681 miles, it has been upgraded with a 350ci BluePrint V8, 4-barrel carburetor, Turbo 350 3-speed automatic, aftermarket headers, and an aftermarket exhaust system. Power steering, power disc brakes, upgraded suspension components, and factory air conditioning make the package far more usable than a stripped-down street build, while Rally wheels, raised-white-letter tires, and a black vinyl top preserve the period look enthusiasts expect from an early Monte Carlo.

The 1972 Dodge Challenger sits squarely in the golden era of Mopar muscle, and this Petty Blue example brings together the visual drama and small-block character that made the E-body such an enduring favorite. Showing just 168 miles on the odometer, it is powered by a 340ci V8 backed by a 727 TorqueFlite 3-speed automatic, with Hooker headers and dual exhaust adding some extra attitude to the combination. The Petty Blue finish, white side stripes, dual hood scoops, 340 Magnum callouts, and chrome 5-spoke wheels give it the unmistakable look of a period street machine. Then there is the cabin: a rare white vinyl interior that completely changes the personality of the car and gives this Challenger a far more distinctive presentation than the usual dark-trimmed muscle car.
