My latest project-80 Malibu Wagon

[maliburacinfreak]

Been looking for another wagon for awhile now. Picked this one up a couple weeks ago. Its an 80 with 82-up front end. It sat untouched for 4-5 years, previous owner robbed the steering column and tail lights for his El Camino. The car was lowered with drop spindles, lowering springs and nitro drop shocks all around. With some fresh gas and a hot battery I had the stock 305 purring again. The tires were dry rotted and flat so I swapped on a set of 79 Z28 wheels. I kinda like them on it...

Welcome back, Lonnie.
It's good to see you back with another wagon... although, it looks like you have no shortage of cars..

BTW, I like the Berlinetta/ Z-28 wheels on there...I think they look cool.

Thanks for the welcome guys, I need to check in a bit more often. Havent messed with the car in the last couple weeks, hoping to pick up a wrecked low mile 84 bonneville sedan from a buddy for an interior swap. Just went sunday and picked up an 82 malibu wagon project for my nephew, its gonna need ALOT of work!
