Parking lights moved down to the \u003cbr\u003edeep-section bumper, and sedans gained a new roofline. Taillight and \u003cbr\u003ebackup lights were restyled, as was the rear cove.

The Nova Super Sport came as a Sport Coupe only, and its \u003cbr\u003eproduction dipped to just 9,100 cars. Super Sports had a new \u003cbr\u003ebrushed-chrome console with floor-mounted four-speed manual transmission\u003cbr\u003e or Powerglide automatic, but a column-mounted three-speed manual \u003cbr\u003eremained standard.

For 1965, Chevy II had the \u003cbr\u003edubious distinction of being the only car in GM's lineup to suffer a \u003cbr\u003esales decline.  It is possible that some Chevy II sales were lost to the\u003cbr\u003e brand-new '65 Corvair, which addressed virtually all its 1960–64 \u003cbr\u003eproblems, got rave reviews from automotive journals and featured sleek \u003cbr\u003enew (Z-body) styling along with a brand-new chassis. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2 id=\"Third_generation_(1979)\"\u003e\u003cspan id=\"Third_generation_.281979.29\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ch2 id=\"First_generation\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/storefeederimages.blob.core.windows.net\/rmtoysltd\/Products\/84f29cc4-36af-4de8-82e9-ee0a9aa3b7c0\/Full\/july5oohnv2.jpg\" jsaction=\"\" class=\"sFlh5c FyHeAf iPVvYb\" style=\"max-width: 950px; width: 557px; height: 222px; margin: 0px;\" alt=\"AMT 1\/25 Scale Unbuilt Kit AMT1177\/12 - 1965 Chevrolet Chevelle Stocker\" jsname=\"kn3ccd\"\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e","brand":"AMT","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57795522101632,"sku":"AMT1177\/12","price":45.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0978\/1601\/9328\/files\/AMT117712.jpg?v=1775219207","url":"https:\/\/pienoismallimarketti.fi\/products\/65-chevelle","provider":"Pienoismallimarketti","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
