'65 L-79 Malibu
Neat non-SS L-79 Malibu that was for sale a couple years back. Frighteningly bad bodywork and paint are evident in the current auction pics; I give the seller credit for pointing out these areas as you'd never see them in 'typical' pictures. Looks like a car to avoid, despite it being a very cool and rarely seen 350hp non-SS car.

65 l79...
I remember those cars back in the day...they could run.
As for this car...it is a shame to see the condition. The radiator hose clamps holding the tailpipes tells the whole story.  -wilma

$52K and a ton of money on body work and paint!

That ugly piece of wide side trim on non-SS ‘65’s absolutely ruins the beauty of those cars & the mounting holes are absolutely huge! I actually sold a very nice red ‘65 that was a twin to this car because I just couldn’t mentally get past that trim no matter how hard I tried.

Given this car will cost a fortune to get body/paint right. What do y’all think this car is realistically worth? 30k?

I like the hub caps and whitewalls.

It hurts me to see this Chevelle in this deteriorated condition. Bench seat 4 speed, L79, RED fabric interior in a red car, wheel covers on white walls. Any one feature gets my attention, but ALL in the same car!!
 At least the seller is honest about the issues. IMO it would be crazy ($$$$$) to dive into a restoration, best to be a budget/entry level driver at MUCH MUCH less money. Side note, I am a sucker for bench/4 speed cars a step or two down from top trim levels, L79 Malibu, 409/427 straight Impala or BelAir, tri-carb Catalina etc. Even a COPO '69 or LS6 Chevelle I would prefer bench/4 speed or column shift auto. I'm weird that way I guess. - Bill W

I've always really liked the '64-'65 Chevelles and have thought that they don't get enough love.I hope this one gets bought by someone who restores it properly cause the old girl sure deserves it.
