Are Chevelle ss rims and regal rims the same?
No, but they are close. The spokes are slightly different. The center caps are different. Regal rims are usually chrome plated and charcoal gray or black. Chevelle SS wheels are painted argent and charcoal gray. Regal rims usually don't have trim rings and Chevelle SS wheels do. Not huge differences, but you can easily tell the difference even when they are installed on the car. Chevy only used the magnum 500 style SS wheels in 1969 and 1970. They DID use them on Novas, Camaros, and Chevelles though.

What is the difference between a Chevelle and a Malibu?
From 1964 to 1977 the Malibu was a trim package more than anything else. It was a step up from the base Chevelle model, and was generally called a sport coupe. The early super sports were actually called "Malibu Super Sport" before ALL super sports became "SS396" in 1966. By 1970, ALL super sports were Malibius and even shared the same VIN model number as the Malibu. For Coupes, the model number was 13637. While ALL super sports were Malibus, most Malibus were NOT Super Sports. The fact that regular Malibus and Super Sports shared the same model nimber on the VIN is what makes it SO difficult to tell the difference between a genuine Super Sport and a SS clone in 1970 if the car is cloned well. Unfortunately, it also makes it possible to pass off a clone as a genuine Super Sport. In 1978, the Chevelle name was dropped and ALL Chevelles were called Malibus after that.
Is a door window regulator from an El Camino interchangeable with a 1971 Chevelle?
It is with a station wagon for sure. El Caminos are actually modified Chevelle station wagons with the roof removed believe it or not. The chrome trim around the rear window and bed are actually there to hide where the roof was removed. the panel at the front of the bottom of the bed covers the rear leg well. While it SHOULD work, I can't promise you they are actually the same. Knowing GM's love for interchangeability, they most likely are.
How do you replace ignition switch on 1969 Chevelle?
The switch is located on top of the steering column. It's rod actuated. Remove the negative battery cable. Remove the screws that mount the column to the firewall and the two bolts that hold it up to the dashboard. Two screws mount it to the column. Remember, it's rod actuated, so you'll need to make sure the rod is properly mated with the new switch, and make sure it's properly adjusted. The mounting screws are also the adjustment screws because the mounting holes are elongated to allow for adjustment.

Will a 1968 Chevelle rear end fit a Chevy s10?
Not without some serious modification. Chevelles had a coil spring rear suspension while the S-10 uses leaf springs. While I haven't measured, I'm pretty sure the Chevelle rear end is also wider than an S-10 rear end. Now, you COULD change the spring mounts and narrow the Chevelle rear end to fit, but there are alternatives that would be MUCH easier to use in an S-10.
