Classic Car Overview
A True Icon Of Chevrolet Performance, This 1965 Chevrolet Chevelle Malibu SS Is Powered By The Legendary And Highly Sought-After L79 327 ci V8, Factory Rated At 350 Horsepower. The L79 Was Chevrolets Top Performing Small Block For 1965, Featuring A High-Compression 327, Hydraulic Camshaft, Four Barrel Holley Carburetor, Dual Exhaust, And Distinctive Chrome Valve Covers And Dual Snorkel Air Cleaner. It Delivered Corvette Inspired Performance In A Stylish Midsize Package, Making It One Of The Most Desirable Chevelle Combinations Ever Produced.
With Its Distinctive Super Sport Trim, Bucket Seats And Center Console To Its Unmistakable Body Lines, Every Detail Reflects The Spirit Of 1960s American Performance.
The L79 Powered Cars Are Prized By Collectors For Their Rarity, Exceptional Drivability, And Impressive Performance, Offering The Perfect Balance Of Power, Reliability, And Classic Chevrolet Character.
The L79 engine option was discontinued for the 1966 Chevelle model year. It is suspected the reason is Chevrolet did not want a 350hp 327 engine competing with the new SS396 series Chevelles with 325hp, 360hp, and 375hp 396 cid engines.
The L79 engine option returned for the 1967 Chevelle model year but the horsepower rating was reduced from 350hp to 325hp, presumably so it might only compete with the base 325hp 396 cid SS396 engine. Like the 1965 model year the L79 engine could be ordered in any body style or series except the SS396 sport coupe or SS396 convertible.
With A Total Production Of Only 6,021 Units Built, Making It Rare Find.
Purchased New At McClinton Chevrolet In Parkersburg, Virginia. There Is An Owners History Through The Years.
Centerfold Car In Hot Rodding Magazine In 1997. Complete Show Quality Restoration, Starting With Solid Rust Free Body, Professional Chrome And Stainless Steel Works,Flawless Paint Work Along With Interior, No Detail Skipped.
Ready To Be Showed And Enjoyed Of This Rare L79 Special Vehicle. Built At The Atlanta Plant.
