Vehicle Description
When the Chevelle debuted in 1964, buyers were offered a variety of
trim levels, the top-of-the-line being the Malibu. It was available
on a variety of body styles, including 4-door sedans, 2-door sport
coupes and convertibles. By 1967, the SS 396 was the only Chevelle
available with a high-performance big block, and most Malibus came
with a 283ci small block. However, Chevrolet produced a handful of
Malibus with the L30 engine option, allowing buyers to have a
327/275hp small block instead. This Malibu has undergone a full
restoration. Finished in the original color combination of Deep
Water Blue with blue interior and white convertible top, the engine
bay and underside are nicely detailed to match the level of the
rest of the car. It retains its original 327ci engine with M20
4-speed manual transmission. Only a small percentage of Malibus
left the factory in this color combination, and even fewer
convertibles had the 4-speed manual transmission. This is a truly
unique car.
