1964 Malibu SS

Body Styles

The 1964 Malibu SS was available in two body styles, 2-door sport coupe and 2-door convertible. Any of the available engines were possible in either body style. The Malibu SS was NOT an option unless you define 'option' as a choice. A buyer either purchased a Chevelle 300 series, a Malibu series, or a Malibu SS series base car.

Chevrolet described both body styles as 5-passenger capacity; three in the rear and two in the front due to the standard front bucket seats that was part of the Malibu SS series.

Both body styles were identical whether an optional 6-cylinder or V8 engine was ordered. The particular engine made no difference in the body styles and only certain emblems would distinguish a 6-cylinder Malibu SS from a V8 Malibu SS. See the trim page for those differences.

Production Numbers Of All Chevelles

The production numbers shown above are what was reported to GM for final assembly. The Fisher Body plant at Euclid, OH. assembled various body styles and shipped those to the final assembly plants. These included station wagons, sedan pickups, and in some cases, even Malibu SSs. To our knowledge, those body production figures for the Euclid, OH. plant have never been published. Just how many Malibu SSs that were built at individual plants is also an unknown figure.

The figures above include Malibu SSs 'exported' to Canada (in parentheses). There is no known number of how many Malibu SS Chevelles were built at any given assembly plant.

There are no known number of what specific engines or transmissions were installed in the two Malibu SS body styles. All available 6- and 8-cylinder engines were also available in any other 1964 Chevelle, be it the Chevelle 300, Malibu, or Malibu SS.
