Introduced in the autumn of 1963 for the 1964 model year, the Chevrolet Chevelle was a mid-sized automobile produced by General Motors up to 1977. Built on the A-body platform, it filled the gap between the Chevy II and full-size cars like the Impala, offering various body styles—including coupes, convertibles, and wagons—and iconic performance, particularly in the SS (Super Sport) models. Offered in 300 (budget) and Malibu (premium) series, with options for 2-door sport coupes, 4-door sedans, and station wagons. Engine options started with an inline 6 or V8, quickly expanding to include higher-performance V8 engines. The Chevelle quickly became known for its "Coke bottle" styling in later years and its "long hood, short-deck" profile. The first generation spanned 1964–1967, followed by a major redesign in 1968, leading to legendary models like the 1970 SS 454.

This Fisher-bodied Chevelle Malibu V8 was imported into the UK from California in 2016. The vendor then set about restoring the car to its former glory which included removing the engine and transmission and stripping all body parts. The shell was sent away for restoration and resprayed in a shade of British racing green metallic. New bumpers and grille were fitted along with all new body mouldings. In December 2020 a brand new blueprinted small block Chevy 383 stroker crate was shipped in developing 442 HP and 450 lbs / ft of torque which was coupled to a reconditioned T350 transmission with OWC race and valve body kit and new 2400 rpm stall torque converter. Fitted with a Holley carburettor and MSD ignition, a new power servo disc brake conversion was also installed at the front. Pleasingly retaining many of its original build stickers, this potent survivor from a bygone Muscle car era comes with a current V5C document.
