This 1966 Chevrolet Chevelle Malibu has been refinished in orange over a customized tan interior and is powered by a 283ci V8 paired with a two-speed Powerglide automatic transmission and a Positraction rear end with 3.73:1 gears. Additional modifications include front and rear sway bars, a Crane Fireball camshaft, an Edelbrock aluminum intake manifold, Sanderson exhaust headers, C3 Corvette wheels, four-wheel disc brakes, and more. This Chevelle is offered by the selling dealer in California with an owner’s manual and a clean New Mexico title.
The body was repainted in Tangelo pearl under previous ownership, and the condition of the paintwork is shown up close in the gallery below. Factory badging has been removed, while remaining trim includes chrome bumpers, mirrors, and hood vents well as a gold bowtie grille emblem.
Polished 15″ aluminum wheels were reportedly sourced from a 1978 25th Anniversary Edition C3 Corvette and wear checkered-flag center caps, chrome lug nuts, and BFGoodrich Radial T/A tires with raised red lettering. Disc brakes are fitted all around, and front and rear sway bars have been installed.
The interior is trimmed in tan vinyl with a matching dash cap, cloth seat inserts, and carpets. White-faced AutoMeter gauges are fitted in a custom dash panel, and the center console features a factory clock. A Grant GT steering wheel is mounted to a tilting column. Just under 1,000 miles are shown on the five-digit odometer, with total mileage unknown. The car features an aftermarket alarm system.
The 283ci V8 was reportedly re-bored under previous ownership and is said to feature a cut crankshaft, a Crane Fireball camshaft, and cylinder heads with 2.02″ valves. The engine features an Edelbrock carburetor on an aluminum intake manifold as well as Sanderson exhaust headers, a March Performance serpentine belt conversion, finned valve covers, and more. Cooling is via an aluminum radiator with a Derale electric fan, and ancillary items have been relocated from the engine bay walls.
Power is sent to the rear wheels via a two-speed Powerglide automatic transmission with a 2,400-rpm stall converter and a 3.73:1 Positraction rear end. Additional underside photos are viewable in the gallery, and walkaround videos are viewable below.
