Three or four years ago, my brother bought a car to restore, just like what I am doing right now. He bought a '78 Malibu for $900. We were looking for one for a long time and after a while we found one in the same town as us. We took the car apart to the last bolt. We are doing a complete frame off restoration. He is going to make it a clone of my dad's old Malibu (in many magazines and car shows). Everything will be mostly the same, like the color, ford grabber blue, the motor, 402 BBC, except the pro street tires. Since he is in the machine shop in the technical school we go to, he made a lot of parts for ir. To name a few, he made the alternator bracket, a shifter bracket (to raise the shifter up higher), throttle cable bracket, a lot of nuts and bolts, and many suspension and motor parts.
