This 1965 Chevrolet Chevelle Malibu SS sport coupe is powered by a 283ci V8 mated to a two-speed Powerglide automatic transmission. The car is finished in turquoise and equipment includes power steering, electric windshield wipers, a coil-spring suspension, 14″ steel wheels with turbine-style SS wheel covers, an Edelbrock four-barrel carburetor, MSD electronic ignition, and a dual exhaust with Flowmaster mufflers. The cabin is outfitted with black vinyl upholstery, aftermarket air conditioning, a center console, front bucket seats, and a RetroSound digital stereo. The car was refurbished under prior ownership and acquired by the seller in 2013. Subsequent work consisted of converting the air conditioning system to R134a refrigerant and replacing the radiator, blower motor, and spark plug wires. This Chevelle Malibu SS is now offered with spare parts, service records, and a Pennsylvania title in the seller’s name.
The car left the factory finished in Artesian Turquoise (K) and was repainted under prior ownership. Exterior details include quad headlights, chrome bumpers, SS and 283 badging, a driver-side mirror, electric windshield wipers, quarter vent windows, and polished exhaust finishers. There is a paint blemish on the hood.
The 14″ steel wheels wear turbine-style SS wheel covers and are mounted with 215/70 BFGoodrich Premier whitewall tires. A non-matching spare is located in the trunk. The car is equipped with power steering as well as a front and rear coil-spring suspension, and stopping power is provided by drum brakes.
The front bucket seats and rear bench are trimmed in black vinyl upholstery joined by a color-coordinated dashboard, door panels, and carpets. Interior appointments include a center console, a T-handle shifter, aftermarket air conditioning, a RetroSound digital stereo, and a lighted glove box. The air conditioning was converted to utilize R134a refrigerant and the blower motor was replaced under current ownership. There are holes in the headliner and the fabric is loose on the rear sail panel.
The two-spoke steering wheel fronts a 120-mph speedometer, a combination gauge, and an array of warning lights. The clock does not work. The five-digit odometer shows 4k miles, approximately 1,600 of which were added under current ownership. Total mileage is unknown.
The 283ci Turbo-Fire V8 features an Edelbrock four-barrel carburetor, an MSD electronic ignition system, finned valve covers, and a chrome air cleaner assembly. The radiator and spark plug wires were replaced under current ownership.
Power is routed to the rear wheels through a two-speed Powerglide automatic transmission.
