New G Body owner here

[Baker7888]

Hey All, new guy here. Got my hands on a 78 Malibu 2 dr with a v6/th350. It runs (poorly) has AC and a solid body but is overall very rough. Had an 87 F body prior to this along with a handful of GM trucks over the years. Plans for the car include (most likely) carb 350 swap, keep the trans, lots of interior work and hopefully some upgraded suspension components as well. Im sure ill have lots of questions along the way. Great site by the way!

Wow, you say "rough overall", I say it looks pretty darned good in the pic you shared.

We have very different definitions of rough haha. Looks a like a great base to start with. Welcome!
