MALIBU 2 door wagon conversion OKC

Another thought. I was wondering how he addressed the door window frames. 2-dr G-body cars did not use a solid window frame.

Looks to me like a cut and weld using the original frames

I can appreciate the amount of work that went into the 2 door conversion. I'm not a big fan of lowriders (that's just me). The interior looks a bit rough (cracked dash, split upholstery on the driver's seat)

I'm merely commenting on the body. Good job keeping it stock looking. You could always unlowrider it and address the interior.

I'm thinking the same thing, Brian. Was that the way you were planning to do it on your 2-dr wagon project?
I'm also guessing that the window glass was custom made, like the 1/4 window glass. I know in some cases the A-pillars were slanted back to meet the coupe glass.

Yes that was how. I plan to address the window frame on the doors. Just from what a quick look showed me it looks like they cut flat glass for the quarter glass which would certainly be more readily available and cheaper than having curved glass custom-made
