Think I'm in the right place?? Is this a G-body??
Have a 78 Lemand Safari in excellent shape.
Know nothing about it, I'm a chevy guy.
Have a 400 small block I just built and am wondering????????????
Might repower it, might sell it, might do nothing.

Welcome, you are in the right place!

Sweet wagon!

I'll need a Pontiac one of these days to round out my collection! :lol:

Thanks for the reply.
Does that mean this wagon is a G-body?
Being a Chevy guy, to me that would mean I can use parts like engine mounts, headers etc. from Malibus, ElCaminos, post 78 I think.
Still thinking about selling it but want weigh my options first.

Yes, it is a G-body...

If you want to get technical, the '78-'81s are still A-bodies, but when the FWD platform was introduced in'82, they gave those the A-body designation, and started calling the old A-bodies the G-body.

But yes, lots of parts from Malibu's, Montes, etc will interchange.

Thanks a lot this is good to know as plenty of those parts are available everywhere.
When your looking for parts and say stationwagon you usually get a "I don't know look" rather than help.

Well I still feel new that's why I'm using this thread. It's been a year but I'm back.
Bad news is health and finance. Got to give up the wagon.
Talking with some people on another site about how to sell it, I'll keep you all posted here when I know.
Would make a good driver or drag car. maybe someone is wanting a wagon or knows who does.

Send a PM to "shotgun" here on the board...

Depending on your price, your wagon is exactly what he's looking for, and He's pretty close to you in Pennsylvania.
