It would be interesting to know how many Malibu wagons exist in NZ. Could you own the only two?

As far as i'm aware these are the only two here, we have carjam over here it's an online vehicle checker & it says one of one in Nz on my good one. The parts wagon i dont think was ever on the road here so no plate history on that one, good to have something different 👌 😎

Hi guys .... Been hunting online to try find cargo glass rubbers for the side rear windows with no joy, does anyone over there sell them? Ones on the wagon are rock hard, chasing water leaks everywhere haha. Rock auto has all 4 door seals i'll grab before she's paint just be good to replace those cargo ones as well - Cheers for any help..... Hope everyone has an awesome Xmas & New Years to 👌 😎

Not sure if Mother Mopar shipped or built the mini vans we had here to source them but somewhere on the fourm is some talk about using the rear hatch seals to replace the long dropped GM seals. Needs to be trimmed to fit but possible fix.

Two new front tires on this today, made a big difference there. Got brave the other day & swapped out the Perspex rear window for the glass one, can actually see out the back now haha. Daily driving it at pres & she's settling down well, done 250 miles in the last couple of weeks. Sounds like February she's off for panel work then paint around April may so just enjoying her as much as possible before then...... Well hope everyone has an awesome New Years - Cheers for all the help on this old girl 👌 😎

Windows are urethane set. Early cars used clipped-on aluminum moldings, later ( 81+, in my experience) used a trim molding glued to the outside of the glass
