The 1968 model year marked the beginning of the second generation for the Chevelle, featuring a distinct “Coke bottle” profile and a shorter 112-inch wheelbase for two-door models. While the Malibu was a mid-level trim line within the series, this particular car features a black exterior, bucket seats, and has been seen in various classic car listings and discussions.
