Here is a link to the 1966 Sales flyer on my
Website. These pictures show the emblems on some.

The 1966 Malibu SS that I restored was
built in Oshawa Ontario and came factory 283 with a 2spd. They used emblems on
the rear quarters similar to 1965 chevelles.

Basically, yes (IMO) but actually no. The U.s.
built Super Sport was built on the same basic body and chassis but in 66, 67
and 68 the Super Sport was a separate model from the Malibu (138xx VIN
as opposed to the Malibu (135/6xxx VIN); the same way the Malibu was a
separate model from the 300 and 300 Deluxe. The Malibu could be had
with a 6-cyl or a V8 (283 or 327) where the Super Sport came with
the 396 engine as standard equipment.
The Super Sport (also referred to in GM literature as
the SS396 model) carried no Malibu script or badges but many state's
DMVs still classified it as a 'Malibu' or simply a
Chevelle.
Are all 66 chevelle super sports
Malibu's? can you have a 66 chevelle ss and have it not be a Malibu?
