The market is still on the rebound. It would be hard to make the necessary repairs AND make money on it. It would be real easy to get upside down on that one. A Malibu convertible in great shape would go for around $8 or $9K if you don't want to sit on it for any length of time. You could get more, but it'll take time.
I'm trying to sell a REALLY nice Nova for $8K. It's been for sale for 3 years. I've had an offer of $5K. I told the guy he could have the engine and trans for $5K, but I keep the car. He seemed insulted about that. After three years, that was the best offer I had.
Now, a Chevelle would obviously do better, but I haven't seen them do much better. There's plenty of true SS cars that can't sell for less money than that. (at least around here) ....I'd probably play it safe and let it go.
........of course if your daughter digs the rag top, maybe that would be a good car for her?
