Hey, im a new member in here and are from Denmark. My Project car is a 79 Malibu 4 door. But I need Doors and trunk. I have been offered a 83 pontiac bonneville for parts. But Can I use the Doors and trunk from it?

You would most likely will be only able to use the front doors as the rear doors are different. Not sure about the trunk lid. Regardless the Bonneville will be a good source of parts that yoy may need.

Welcome aboard! As long as you're getting the donor car/ parts for nothing, give the rear doors as try. What have you got to lose? You'll find the Bonneville to be an invaluable parts source. Good luck!

If the rear door bottoms are in good condition and you are handy with a welder, the doors themselves are the same, just need to swap the window frames and glass from the 79 to the 83. Bonneville body lines are the same as on the Malibu.
