1965 Chevrolet Malibu Super Sport
For this mornings feature Project Cars For Sale has found a nice 1965 Chevrolet Malibu Super Sport project car to share. From the exterior this 1965 Chevrolet Malibu SS appears relatively stock with exception of the cowl hood and aftermarket wheels. However, it has quite a host of goodies within the Butternut yellow package. Under the hood lies a 355 cubic inch small block Chevrolet with a roller cam breathing through 2 ½ inch exhaust with Flowmaster 3 chamber mufflers. This car surely rumbles idling down the block and roars to life as you put your foot to the floor and row through the gears! Oh did I just mention rowing through the gears? Yes, that’s right, inside you will find a Hurst Pro-Billet shifter controlling a Tremec 3550 5 speed manual transmission handling the shifting duties! Steering is upgraded through the use of a CPP quick ratio power steering box controls and the car also was built using certain Hotchkis components. The Malibu can come to a screeching halt with the help of a Wilwood front disk brake conversion and a hydroboost setup. What makes this 1965 Chevrolet Malibu even more of a gem, is that the seller reports that the car is an original 300hp 327 cubic inch Super Sport car and that the original engine is included with the sale! Also, the original flat hood painted the same butternut yellow is included as well. It appears to be a nice, clean, driver as is and would not be embarrassment to pound the pavement in. What you have is a desirable car with some rare options where most of the hardest part of the restoration is already complete! With some minor clean up and personalization, it appears this 1965 Malibu Super Sport could be even more of a head turner than it already is! Check out the full car listing here on eBay
