Hey Forum!
My name is Cliff Walter and I am located outside of ATL. I have a "Georgia owned" 1979 Chevrolet Malibu Classic 4 Door Sedan with 31k miles. It has the 305 4-Barrel V-8. I am trying to find out what the factory (assembly line) battery looks like and if there is anyone who sells new ones. Information about these vehicles is limited on the internet. At least, it is for me. Can anyone help me with this? I have attached a couple of pics. As you can see, it is undergoing a "light restoration" as everything except the paint and a few trim items were in great condition. I am just trying to get it back to as close to original condition as I can. I purchased it from a gentleman in his 80's. However, it wasn't "his" Malibu. It had belonged to his father-in-law who just has passed in the last few years. He drove it to his son-in-law's house and left it there, as he decided it was time to stop driving. That explains the low mileage. I can't call it a "barn find"...it is more like a "backyard find". LOL. Anyway, I would appreciate any help concerning the battery. Thanks for looking!
