New From Midwest

[lowmalibu82]

New from Iowa. I have an 82 Malibu 4 dr. Flat black (looks awesome waxed and buffed out) with Mag rims and some white letter tires + a 2in lowering kit. I enjoy building and working on all kinds of older cars. I bought this afew months ago and im getting ready to do soon a 229 to a built 305 engine swap. Id like to soak up some good knowledge on what I can and should do with my Malibu. Thanks

From the Quad Cities. Im currently in Alabama right now for afew weeks. Once I get back to Iowa I know where to find a very nice 305 block with little work to do to put in my Malibu with a THM350 transmission. From that I plan on doing the cars interior and new tires and suspension package( but Ill need to save alittle more for that). But ive had a wide array of cars. Ive had a Ford ltd., a 71 AMC Matador Wagon. One of about 35 registerd running in the United States. First year 258 straight 6 ( I loved that motor to death). And now my Malibu which is my current project.
