Weird part is the lowers of the front fenders look darker...almost like they were spotted in...

Now, who was it again that was swearing that the mismatched paint on the bottom of those fenders had to be original?

Just goes to show you you can't take anything for granted these days, or anybody's word for that matter. Buyer beware.

The entire gauge cluster would have had to been changed out too, so the 411 mile odometer is also not the original one from the car. I agree, it was probably a really nice low mile original malibu that should have been left alone... now theres not really anything anyone can be sure about on the car.

Now it makes sense why the tire pressure sticker is shown loose.

I also noticed upon closer inspection of the pics that the partial build sheet shows GS1 2.73 gears. Were 2.73s available on a legit Z15 optioned SS car in '72?

Pretty long legs for anything trying to be a legitimate performace car.
