If it was the high performance 409/400 HP with a 4 speed - yes - to a point. Again you are talking in the $45K to $55K range.

This is what the car would look like as far as color: Cypress Green Met.



IMO - The only real valuable 1965 409 Chevy would be the 400HP/4 speed in an Impala SS convertible with lots of options. Then you can get into the $75K and up range. The real money is with the L78 396/425 HP cars. They can easily command 6 figures.



Color can also affect the value of a 1965 Chevy. This one is in a 1965 only color called Evening Orchid and is more valuable than all other colors because of it's one year only use.

The car above is a 409/4 speed full restored Impala SS loaded with options including A/C in EO color. It sold in May of 2014 for $70,000
