Thanks guys. I am looking to find a solid car with no body damage. I don't have a lot of time for that kinda work. My goal is a 1983 Malibu Wagon only due to my date of birth. I loved the gbody since I was 15 years old jeep life over ruled it. But this was the car that got me hooked. But I was to late due to someone else got it before me.

Being that you posted a pic of an earlier Olds Cutlass Cruiser, have you considered maybe obtaining one of those if you can't find the Malibu wagon of choice?

I think Cutlass Cruisers are pretty cool, and probably harder to find than an '82-'83 Malibu wagon.I think it would be a cool alternative to the Malibu.

Just my opinion.

The first car I ever purchased was a 1983 Malibu wagon. Not much in the way of bolt-ons back in the late 80s. Lots of good stuff today. One of the Forum sponsors is UMI Performance, and though I don't own any of their products, they show their stuff at the track using a green 79 Monte Carlo.

I picked up a set of four wagon-specific wagon lowering springs from OPGI. Haven't installed them yet, but I'll post before and after pics when I get 'a-round-tuit'. You can also find good stuff posted by Ben (SRDart) aka Pumpkin8r:
