Hey guys. Where can I find a shroud for my stock (for now) Malibu 79 Classic coupe. Can some one point me in the right direction. I would like a plastic one.
Thanks Dez

The 1970 Chevelle has a nice looking plastic shroud. The bigger V8s use a wide radiator that matches your photo. I am not sure of the fan diameter.

Guessing '78 - '80 Chev would be the closest to original for the OP's '78. Monte Carlo did use some of the same front clip pieces as the Malibu. Believe radiator support and shroud are two of them. Inner skirts, probably also.

The '78-'88 SBC cars all interchange with the shrouds. Olds do fit. Not 100% on the Pontiac. Outside of cosmetic differences for model specific needs all the rad supports can interchange but may need holes or trimming for proper fit of things like harness routing, header panel/headlight pocket clearance. '78-'80 Montes & '78-'87 Malibu/El Camino use the same inner fenders.

Cutlass V8 shrouds will fit all Gbodys. As a matter of fact. All shrouds that came in
a Gbody will fit in any Gbody.
