Vehicle Description
This 1964 Chevrolet Chevelle Malibu SS is a real deal Super Sport
with great options! Heading into the 1964 model year, Chevrolet
seemed to be missing mid-size vehicle in their passenger car
lineup. On one hand, the GM marque had compact cars with the
Corvair and Chevy II/Nova and on the other size Chevrolet had
full-size cars such as the Biscayne, Bel Air, and Impala. That gap
was filled in 1964 with the introduction of the Chevelle, a car
that straddled the gap between a compact and a full size. The
Chevelle shared a platform with other GM mid-size models including
the Pontiac Tempest, Oldsmobile F-85, and Buick Skylark. The new
mid-size Chevelle line was divided into two distinct trim levels,
the entry level Chevelle 300 series and plusher Chevelle Malibu
Series. Up front, the new Chevelle had its own unique grille and
front end design that diverged from the Chevy II's single headlight
and wider spaced grille look but was, to an extent, reminiscent of
the full-size passenger cars with a similar looking grille pattern
and a pair of dual headlights. Down the sides, the body lines were
pronounced, yet tasteful, and, depending on the model, featured a
variety of chrome side trim configurations. The rear end design
more closely resembled that of a Chevy II with single taillight
pods on either side of the decklid. Further elevating the Malibu
series was the availability of the Super Sport "SS" option package,
which gave the new Chevelle Malibu a bit more of a sporty look and
feel. Special trim moldings and SS emblems adorned the exterior of
the Malibu SS and stepped up the exterior appearance. The Super
Sport interiors were also a bit more luxurious and featured
additional instrumentation as well. Under the hood on this
particular '64 Chevrolet Malibu SS is a 327 Cubic Inch V8 engine
topped with a Holley intake manifold and Edelbrock single 4 barrel
carburetor. The 327 V8 is backed by a 4 speed manual transmission
that gives this Chevelle Malibu SS a fantastic muscle car feel
while cruising down the road. Exhaust exits the Chevy small block
through a set of headers and out through a dual exhaust setup that
generates a nice throaty sound out the back. This '64 Chevrolet
Chevelle comes equipped with several fantastic options! With power
steering, driving this Malibu is a total joy especially when you
have to squeeze into a tight parking space a the local car show or
drive-in. Further helping manuver in or out of a tight spot is a
chrome outside driver's side mirror, which is always a welcome
addition to any classic car. Power is sent from the 327 powerplant
to the rear axle through a Positraction rear differential, so you
can be sure you'll keep the rubber to the pavement on this muscle
car. Speaking of rubber, this 1964 Chevelle Malibu SS rides on a
set of thin whitewall radial tires paired with SS wheelcovers
giving this '64 Chevy a fantastic look and even better ride. The
exterior of this Super Sport Chevelle has been correctly refinished
in a beautiful Palomar Red paint that completes the exterior look
of the car. The interior of this 1964 Chevrolet Malibu SS is
gorgeous! The front bucket seats and rear bench seat have been
reupholstered in black vinyl. The matching black door panels, black
carpeting, center console with Hurst shifter, and black padded dash
are all in great shape as well and appear to remain in their stock
configuration. The steering wheel has been upgraded to a woodgrain
model that gives a little extra flair to the interior appearance.
The instrument cluster comes equipped with a 120 MPH speedometer,
amp gauge, temperature gauge, oil pressure gauge, and fuel gauge,
along with a clock. The dash is finished with a locking glovebox
and push-button AM radio. Whether you're adding to your existing
collection of blue bowties or you're buying your very first classic
car, this 1964 Chevrolet Chevelle Malibu SS would make an excellent
choice. Give Ellingson's a call today at 763-428-7337!
