New to the club
Hi everyone. I have long wanted to get a Chevelle and finally my time has come this week. I am picking up my 1972 Malibu this coming weekend and the resto project can begin. Managed to find a running car that has not been worked before, all numbers matching. It has rust in all the usual places and is a vinyl top car (not sure i'm going to leave it as one).

Welcome to the site, post some pictures when you get it home. Vinyl top car can mean a lot of rust under it. Hard to find a number matching car anymore that not a fortune to buy. Couple of others have 72 chevelles on here so you are right at home here.

Welcome V. My name is Nancy and I have a 1972 Malibu. I too had a vinyl top at one time. Unfortunately like Ray said, I had a lot of rust under it. I ultimately replaced the whole roof. I look forward to hearing all about your Malibu.

Thanks for the words of welcome. I live in Richmond Va and I am supposed to pick the Chevelle up Thursday night, provided we don't get buried in snow tomorrow. I'll get some pictures up this weekend. I plan to keep it as a driveable car as much as I can. As this is my first one i'm going to take my time and try to break a big job into little parts. My end goal is not really to make this a show car but something to be driven and enjoyed. I plan on it being a grandfather, father, son project with my dad and my 10 year old.

Well we got buried with snow and ice so I couldn't pick up the car last night. Tomorrow is the day, the previous owner is going to drop it off at work for me. I should have some pictures to share very soon.
