so the size of tires I have on my 81 Malibu right now are p205/70r14 and I am looking at a pair of tires that are front; 255/60r15 and the guy also said they are 8 by 15 and back 275/60r15 and he said these ones are 10 by 15 (im guessing he means 15 inch rim and 10 inch wide tire) first of all...

hello, I have a 1981 chevy Malibu and am looking for a passenger side marker/turn signal. I am also looking for the chrome trim that surrounds the passenger side headlight and marker. I live in Durham region Ontario so im looking for something in that area. thanks

ya I think the 4 inch ones look a bit goofy lol. but ya at the moment I think im going to tint the windows and replace the headliner before I get the cowl hood

you guys sound like my dad :rofl: , ya I guess ill just stick with the stock hood until I actually need a cowl hood lol

thanks guys, the reason im saying I don't need it for its function is because at the moment I only have the stock 3.8 litre in it, but how much do the proper air cleaners cost? And also do the hoods usualy just bold on to the factory springs or do you have to make some modifications?

thanks. and yes it being unique is one of the main reasons I bought it, Id hate to be like all the other guys my age cruising around in a Honda civic :lol:
