1965 Chevrolet Chevelle Malibu SS. FRAME-OFF RESTORATION - APPROX. $50,000 IN RESTORATION RECEIPTS!!! 396 engine, working AC and Automatic Transmission. Includes numerous pages of documentation, restoration photographs, records, receipts, and original 65' Chevelle booklets. Finished in Madeira Maroon Metallic, the body features laser-straight bodywork with no visible rippling, sanding marks, or other imperfections aside from two paint flaws shown in the photos. Otherwise, this car’s paint and body are nearly perfect. All exterior chrome, weather stripping, and windows have been replaced, and the car sits on chrome Pacer wheels wrapped in BFGoodrich raised white-letter tires. Power comes from a professionally built and dyno'd 396 cubic-inch V8 paired with a 4-speed 700-R4 automatic transmission. Engine equipment includes a four-barrel Holley carburetor, MSD ignition, Taylor spark plug wires, ceramic-coated headers, a Be-Cool dual electric radiator fan, and an aluminum TCI oil pan. Additional equipment includes AIR CONDITIONING (blows cold), CPP power steering, and CPP power front brakes. Inside, the parchment/white interior features a new gauge cluster, new period-correct Delco push-button converted to AM/FM radio, new headliner, carpet, and dash. The chassis features a rear sway bar, Pure Muscle traction bars, and springs and shocks replaced during the restoration. Beautifully painted gloss black floor pans. The battery has been relocated to the trunk and includes a battery disconnect kill switch. Included with the car in the trunk is a spare tire, two Chevelle floor mats, two tire irons, and the extensive restoration documentation. This is an excellent show-quality driver that is sure to turn heads wherever it goes. It runs fantastic, delivers an unmistakable 396 rumble, and runs and drives like a scolded dog. With its gorgeous appearance, striking color, and strong-running drivetrain, this Chevelle is one heck of a muscle car. Odometer reads 93,411 miles, but less than 8,000 of them since restoration, which was completed 15 years ago. Has always been stored in a climate-controlled garage.
