Hi guys,

My name is Roy and I'm from the Netherlands.
Bought my first Chevy Malibu about a month ago.
It's a '78 with a 305cui.
Has a bit of work on it and I hope to find some advice and tips here along the way.

Anyhow here's a couple of pictures.

Thx Guys,

It's not going to be a big project.
Just freshen it up a bit, build a nice exhaust. (Already got some mufflers and headers)
Lower it about 2/3 inches, some nice wheels.
Picked up a new intake yesterday.
Look for a different carb but that's not a priority since I'm driving on LP gas.
Gas prices are getting out of hand here.
About $1.50 a liter.

For now I'm trying to figure out what kind of rear springs I'm gonna get.
Can't make sense of the moog options yet

Welcome aboard, Roy!
Looks like it will be a nice, fun, cruiser project. Looks pretty clean, too.
Keep us up to date on your progress.

Thx man.
It's pretty clean only spot of rust is on the left rear door.
Might fix and paint that when I've finished my other plans.
I'll try and update while I'm going.
