1966 Chevrolet Chevelle Malibu Convertible — Silver Blue, 350 V8, Restored 2019 Why This Car Is Special The 1966 Chevrolet Chevelle Malibu is widely considered the high point of the first-generation Chevelle design. Chevrolet introduced the Chevelle for 1964 as a mid-size answer to the wildly popular Ford Fairlane, and by 1966 the formula had been refined into one of the most balanced cars the division ever built. The body received a full redesign that year, moving away from the boxy 1964-65 look and adopting a longer, lower, more sculpted profile with a wider stance and a more aggressive front end featuring quad headlamps flanking a horizontal bar grille. It was a cleaner, more confident design, and collectors have recognized it as such for decades. The Malibu was the premium trim level of the Chevelle line in 1966, sitting above the base 300 series and below the performance-focused SS 396. It offered a meaningful list of creature comforts and styling upgrades while remaining accessible enough to sell in large numbers. Convertibles, however, were a different story. Open-top Chevelles were built in far lower volumes than their hardtop and coupe counterparts, making them the more desirable body style by a wide margin today. What you have here is a 1966 Chevrolet Chevelle Malibu convertible finished in Silver Blue over a black vinyl interior — a color combination that photographs well and holds up even better in person. The VIN decodes this car as a Malibu-series convertible built at the Kansas City assembly plant in 1966, which is consistent with everything presented. The car was restored in 2019 and presents well throughout, with a focused set of upgrades that improve drivability without stripping away the character of the original car.
