this is the latest pic. I blacked out all of the trim in the window area for the pillarless look. Now it just needs a bunch of tint and a complete powertrain swap!

And wheels, tires, complete front suspension work over, etc.


Anyone wanna buy a '81 Malibu wagon!?!

Been driving the hell out of it lately. A/c quit, brakes squeal and I need rear tires. Thinking of C5 front and F body rear disc with 17” wheels. Need ideas, I’m wondering how the year one 17” snowflakes would look

I think they would look awesome if they have the right size. I tried 10th Anniversary T/A wheels in my 85, and no dice. The hub hole isn't big enough.

You're not giving up are you? I think it's a great looking wagon with a ton of potential.
I think you'll like it once it's together and drivable.

Argh! Wish I could play this game! Mine’s still 500 miles away at my mom’s house. We just got an offer on our townhouse, and looking at some houses with side yards, so hopefully will have her home soon.

Long-term plans remain same for now, but in the meantime, just want to get her running and registered as a stocker...

Simple fix with either a hone or ridge reamer.....those first-gen ZQ8s are the same

Ok, I don't remember how far it was off; I just couldn't get it to seat. I want to say they were going to need a spacer, too? Doesn't matter to me now that I got the Xtreme wheels. I won't drop back down to 15s; it rides so much better on 16s. If anything, I'm looking for some chrome TB SS 17s which seem to be like hen's teeth. Just trying to help....
