Gateway Classic Cars of San Antonio/Austin is proud to present this 1964 Chevrolet Chevelle Malibu SS, finished in Ember Red over an Ivory interior. As a first-year Chevelle, this Malibu SS represents the beginning of a nameplate that would become one of Chevrolet's most recognizable performance cars of the muscle-car era.
Under the hood is a 327 CID V8 paired with a 4-speed manual transmission. This Chevelle was built to recreate Chevrolet's little-known 1964 L76 Super Sport concept, using the Corvette-derived 365-horsepower L76 327 as its inspiration. The accompanying magazine feature describes the car as having been recreated as closely as possible to the proposed factory specifications, including the K66 transistorized ignition system. image10-20-2026-122525
The L76 itself was an impressive small-block for the era. Period specifications included 11.0:1 compression, a special-performance mechanical camshaft, special four-barrel carburetion, dual exhaust, and a factory rating of 365 horsepower at 6,200 RPM. image10-20-2026-122525
What makes the story particularly interesting is that Chevrolet planned to offer the L76 in the 1964 Chevelle, but the option was ultimately cancelled before reaching normal full-scale production. The accompanying feature discusses the engineering and production issues surrounding the program and notes that only a handful of possible examples have ever been reported. This Chevelle was created as a representation of what that rarely seen combination could have looked like had the program continued. image10-20-2026-122525
The Ember Red exterior is complemented by bright chrome trim, Super Sport badging, and period-style wheel covers. Inside, the Ivory bucket-seat interior carries the classic early Chevelle appearance, with a center console and factory-style tach and gauge package adding to the performance-oriented presentation shown in the accompanying feature. image10-20-2026-122525
Power steering adds convenience, while the 4-speed manual keeps the driving experience appropriately involved. An AM radio with rear antenna and seatbelts round out the equipment.
Adding another layer to its story, this Chevelle is accompanied by vintage magazine material featuring the car and detailing the history behind Chevrolet's proposed L76-powered 1964 Chevelle. The articles provide an unusual look at both the car and the little-known performance combination it was built to represent. image10-20-2026-122525
