My '80 Malibu

[megaladon6]

very nice car!! this is not a criticism at all, but have you considered going with a larger rear rim and raising the rear (or lowering the front) about an inch? i think it'd make it look even sicker.

Very nice malibu, Clean, Crisp, and Sharp. How much did you pay for the fake centerlines? Is that a fiberglass hood? Any 1/4 mile times.
Thanks Aj

Thanks!....I'm gonna stick with the small wheel size for now. I plan on lowering the car a little. About 2" in the front and 1" in the rear. I also have a 3:08 ring and pinion that I'm thinking about installing. I might go 3:23 though. Still deciding!

The hood is stock with a Harwood glass cowl scoop. The scoop was bonded to the hood with Fusor panel adhesive.

I was at the strip a few years ago and ran 13.8 @ 100. since then I've done some more work and I think I can better that time. Maybe when the weather gets good I'll get a chance to run it again!

The wheels are American Racing Outlaw I's and they were $83 each through Summit. I like the Centerlines but the prices are up around $200 per wheel. I went with Welds on my Nova. This is my other car-

your nova looks bad *ss

Ya those wheels are resonable and great looking. The centerlines are too expensive for me aswell.
Thanks for writing back AJ

78mali350 do u have the new head unit if so then

first start by cutting the radio trim so the opening is just enough to insert the metal peice through that holds the radio dont cut to large tho becaue the metal peice has a lip and when u slide the metal peice through the front it should go all the way in and get caught on the lip of that peice.

that's what i needed to know. i have done many a radios i just wasn't sure on mounting this one. thanks for your help though!

KICK AZZZ rides you got there. Keep up the good work. Sound of a well tuned engine is all I need also. I know where you are coming from.

Nice car! I know a someone said something about lowering it, but I think it looks just fine the way it is.

I especially like your feline theft deterrent (guard cat?) in the first picture. :wink:
