Description of 1965 Chevrolet Chevelle

Up for sale is a REAL 1965 SS Malibu Convertible 138 vin car. In 1964 Pontiac introduced the GTO by stuffing a 389 into a Lemans and started the muscle car craze. So in 1965 Chevrolet had to find an answer, whatthey came up with the Z16! There were 201 of them made, 200 hardtops and 1 convertible. That convertible was lost to history and if ever found would be a priceless "1 of 1". This car was made to look like what the second one would have been.
It has a big block 454 in it and is a 4 speed.Featuring the power convertible top, woodgrain steering wheel, dash mounted clock and the under dash Kleenex dispenser; all super rare options for the '65.It also has the same Z16 wheel covers in near perfect condition. I also hunted down and rebuilt the original number Holley carburetor that came on the Z16. Both the transmission and motor were rebuilt before I bought it and have approximately 15,000 - 20,000 miles on them, although I do not have the documentation.
This car looks stunning init's Teal Blue paint; with it's white top and interior, it's a perfect combination. If you tried to build this car today, it would probably cost close to 100K. Especially if you were lucky enough to find all the rare options this car has.
As in any 50 year old car there are a couple of minor things that will need to be tended to if you want to make it perfect. The top drivers side latch for the convertible top is very thin metal, I would probably reinforce it with a brace or add more metal to it. The rear window ismade of real glass, not plastic and the zipper that goes around the top has skipped a tooth. I had it priced to replaceat a localinterior shop for$125.
I have too many projects and fortunately for you that means that you can be the next owner of this beautiful car. It isready to driveon any cruise night and you'll be proud to show it at any car show. I have a reasonable reserve on this car.If you wouldlike forsomeone to come inspect the vehicle, that can be arranged at your cost. All inspections mustbecompleted no later than Saturday May 28th. $1,000 non refundable deposit required within 48 hours of auction close.
Think about this .... where else can you get a big block 4 speed convertible in beautiful condition with all the rare options that come on this car, for less than 50K
Local pick up in central California available or it can be shipped to you anywhere in the USA at cost.

Thank you for all your interest in this car. A lot of people have asked for additional pictures of the vin tag and trunk area, so I wanted to add those. The trunk area is as nice as the rest of the car and has the spare and jack tools. I've also included a pic of the carburetor ID #3310 for the Z16.

To clarify, the actual Odometer reads 64,266. I don't have the actual mileage on the motor and transmission because I don't have the documentation but it is between 15,000 - 20,000 miles.
