autoevolution 9 May 2021, 19:56 UTC · by 5 photos This is the story of such a Chevelle. It's the 1966 Malibu model of the iconic coupe, which is nice nicer to look at than a 1965 model, thanks to the V-shaped grille and extended hood. But it doesn't have the right to wear the SS badges, and you can probably tell why. When stock, the red beauty came with an average 283 (4.6-liter) producing something like 220 horsepower. It's not as bad as an entry-level inline-6, but certainly no fire-breathing 396 (6.5L). However, it's pretty obvious that this isn't any kind of completely stock Chevy. The guy has owned it since the 1980s and went through seven different engines, yet from what we understand, that metal chimney stack carving its way through the hood has been there for 25 years. How is that possible, has a universal supercharger been invented? Well, it turns out the car isn't even blown; that's just a fancy scoop.
