I finally got a 4 speed malibu

[Cwc]

After searching off and on for a year or so,I found a malibu that suited me and was for sale,305 4 speed 2.73 posi,buckets,tilt,19k actual miles.
I’m not a fan of the wheels and would like some suggestions for new ones,I’d like to stay 14” or 15”. It has gauges but no tachometer I did find the white wire under dash for tach hook up.Where does the under hood wire enter the firewall?

Very nice. The more I see nice ones, the more I want one for myself. This didn't help.

I think those wheels look perfect on there. I wouldn't change them.

Interesting gauge cluster. Basically the rally gauges minus the tach. Super-clean car!

Very nice ride. I put rallye wheels on my El C

First thing I would do is ditch the 2 barrel carb/intake for a 4 barrel.

Then find a set of 15" stock rims and dog dish hubcaps or at least something factory GM with some rubber that fills the wheel wells.

Weird optioned car
tilt steering
manual trans with console
remote passenger mirror
landau
chrome trim and bumperettes
but no a/c

What state did the car come from?
