1972 Chevrolet Chevelle Malibu 307

Asked by Dwillia6 Nov 27, 2016 at 12:30 PM

Question type: Car Customization

A while back, my husband said he wanted to restore my Chevy Chevelle 307 into an SS model. It was a bronze color with a smooth white top. I told him I wanted it another color, but that it was not an SS, &  I did not want to alter the original model. He then refused to touch it. I had to sell it so it is gone now. Should I have let home change the model, & make it an SS?

I prefer stock cars over clones or other types of resto-mods, but it really comes down to the quality of the work. It would never be worth as much as a restored SS but for some people that might not matter. PS: it was your car, he should have abided by your wishes. There are plenty of beat Malibus out there he could have made into an SS clone if that was his desire.
