1965 Chevelle Malibu Convertible on 2040-cars

Year:1965 Mileage:45222
Location:

San Marcos, Texas, United States

San Marcos, Texas, United States

Welcome!  You are bidding on a beautiful 1965 Chevelle Malibu Convertible.  This car has been garage kept for the past 10 years and is in great shape.  I have driven it across the state of Texas several times, but now it is only driven on Saturdays and Sundays as a cruiser. This is one fantastic ride!!!! And, YES, THIS CAR HAS 45,222 miles on the odometer.  I bought the car in 2003 in Houston, TX.  The then owner told me that he kept the car in the garage and rarely drove it (he had owned the car for 6 years).  He also told me that the gentleman that he bought the car from had owned it for 20 years, and kept it in the garage permanently, only taking it out for service!

In Line 6 cylinder 230 engine - This is only the second engine to go into this car.  It was rebuilt and put in the car 8 years ago, and only has about 2k miles on it. 

Interior is all original with exception to the carpet and glove box (SEATS ARE IN FANTASTIC CONDITION!).  Carpet is in good shape.  Glove box is original, but the guts were taken out to make room for a cd player that I custom installed when I bought the car.  The glove box lock is not currently working and will need to be replaced. 

Cream Vinyl soft top convertible - This is only the second top put on the car and was on it when I purchased the car in 2003.  The top is electric powered by a switch on the driver's side.  Currently, the hydraulic pump is not working well and likely needs to be replaced.  The top still comes down and goes up, but needs a little manual assistance.  Just a couple of small cuts on the top (cuts do NOT leak, they are not all the way through the top).  The top cover also comes with the car. 

16 inch Craiger rims, but comes with the ORIGINAL hubs (as seen in pictures) that are in fantastic shape! Spare tire included as well. 

This Car does not have power steering. 

The only problem with this car is the small amount of rust in the rear wheel wells.  These panels will eventually need to be replaced. 

The car has a beautiful paint job and looks great as you can see in the pics, but there are slight chips in the paint here and there.

Weatherproofing throughout needs to be replaced.  Most of it has dried up and is pretty fragile.

Chrome decals and kit are on just fine, but will eventually need to be replaced as well.  See Pics.

There is a small hole in the trunk that you can see in the photo.

Interior door panels are worn/torn at the bottom, see pics.

Small crack in the windshield on passenger side (see pic).  This is not expanding at all and does not obstruct view.





HAPPY BIDDING!!!

Pushing Back: GM expanding Chevrolet into Korea, Daewoo out

Thu, 29 Apr 2010

Chevrolet Camaro goes to South Korea - Click above for high-res image
General Motors decided several years ago to begin heavily promoting Chevrolet as its global mainstream brand even in markets where its existing brands like Opel and Daewoo were a dominant force. Today, at the Busan Motor Show in South Korea, GM Daewoo president Mike Arcamone announced that the Camaro would lead the way in GM's efforts to market Chevrolet in South Korea.
For now at least Chevrolet and Daewoo-branded vehicles will coexist in the Korean market. However, while we were in China last week GM officials told us that the Daewoo brand, which has been somewhat tainted by past quality issues, would eventually be phased out in favor of Chevrolet. When the new Aveo launches next year it will likely be badged as a Chevrolet even though GM Daewoo is in charge of engineering the car.

GM says hybrid Corvette no laughing matter [w/poll]

Fri, 30 Aug 2013

When Mark Reuss was in LA recently, he sat down to have a few words with the scribes at the Los Angeles Times. When the issue of a hybrid Corvette came up, Reuss answered with "Don't laugh." The General Motors president is a complete fan of the possibility, calling it "attractive" and "really fun," believing it would improve GM expertise and that "people would love it."
Naturally, the president being supportive of an idea doesn't give indication that a hybrid Corvette is on the way. However, with supercars like the Porsche 918 Spyder and Ferrari LaFerrari giving hybrid tech a solid, if remote, place in the performance car world, the inexorable trickle-down of technology means we shouldn't be surprised if and when it does happen.
And now that we have that non-negative half-answer to a speculative question, it would be irresponsible for us not to commence rumormilling for the C8 Corvette. Taking Reuss at his word, the C8 will obviously be a hybrid with all-wheel-drive - the left side wheels driven with electric motors, the right side with the mid-mounted, four-cylinder diesel engine. With coefficient of drag of just .16, figure on a 0-to-60 mile-per-hour time of under 2 seconds and an all-electric range of something like 30 miles at top speed. Don't forget, folks, you read it here first.

GM won't sell 2014 Chevrolet SS in Canada

Thu, 21 Feb 2013

Allow us to be the first to extend our condolences to our friends to the north. General Motors has announced the 2014 Chevrolet SS will not be available in Canada. The Globe and Mail reports the automaker has confirmed the high-performance sedan won't hit Canadian dealers, though GM hasn't offered up any reasoning as to why that is.
Buyers here in the US of A, meanwhile, can look forward to getting their hands on the 415-horspower, rear-wheel drive SS by late summer. Something tells us it won't be long after that before Canadian officials start seeing individually imported 6.2-liter V8 four-doors in their neighborhoods. Fortunately, Canadian buyers will still be able to take home the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette. The C7 bowed at the Canadian International Auto Show last week, reportedly drawing sizable crowds and interest.
