Interesting Orig Paint '66 Malibu 327/4-sp

[scuncio]

Nice looking car that looks pretty well preserved, yet has a non-original '68 327. I suppose it could have been someone's weekend warrior that grenaded the original block early in its life and spent most of its time sitting in the garage.

The year that the famous L79 327 option skipped a year (for whatever reason!) in Chevelle history. What a shame . . .

Appears to be a very nice car but, MAN, all those sideways pics are annoying to look at.

Skipped a year in Chevelle because GM was debuting its 66 SS Chevelle, with the 396 engine rated at 325hp. Could not very well have a 66 Chevelle L-79 with a similar or same horsepower rating competing with the debut of the BB in a Chevelle so….
