gone, and back again

[scarinu10]

In high school i had a 78 Malibu, but being the dumb child i was, i had decided to spend money on other things instead of a street/strip car. Well that 'bu is long gone, and a new one has come into my life. So i just thought i would drop in and say what's up to everyone. I'm from Ohio (the best rust in the country 😉)

also, if anyone reading this would like to confirm that a rocker panel from a 79 el camino would fit on my 79 malibu, that'd be nice 🙂

I believe the wheelbase on the El is longer so the rocker would also be longer. Doesn't mean it won't work with slight mods.

Welcome aboard!
I have a feeling that the El Camino rocker panels might be the same as for a Malibu coupe. They both share the same doors, except that the window glass is slightly different. If they are different, I'm sure it's not by much.
