I'm in the prosses on changing over a 66 Malibu to a SS clone.Are the monting holes the same on the rear quarters so I can change from Malibu to Super Sport?Also the emblem between the tail lights,will that interchange with the "Chevelle" emblem that goes there for an SS?

Thanx for any help.

You will also have to deal with the mounting holes on the trunk of the Malibu where the 'Chevelle' nameplate was, since the SS396 didn't have a nameplate there.

Thanx guys.I did take care of the trunk patching that in. Are the post's in different positions on the emblems? Could they be cut to fit,and epoxyed on?

If you get a '66 service manual it has drawings and dimention as to where each emblem would go. the only one that you shouldn't have to change the mounting on is the SS396 on the grill. The manuals can be pick up on E-Bay or any resto shop/site. Good luck. If you need any more help contact me off list. I'm working on the same project.
