Hello guys,

I'm Rick, 21 years old and from the Netherlands. I own a 1979 Malibu coupe for 2 years now. The car has a 305 with a mild edelbrock performer cam in it.
When I bought it, the car had been sitting in a barn for 12 years,.
I've added a 2" cowl induction hood, a front lip, and it's been repainted in Dec 2019. Recently the car got a full stainless steel exhaust system with Flowmasters and cutouts.
Here is a pic off it when I bought it.

As daily driver, I have a 2005 300C with the 5.7 Hemi in it

Thanks, i will make a picture tomorrow, but don't expect much haha
Engine bay is still work in progress, Hoping to start building a new engine for it in summer 2021, going for a Chevy 350 crate engine, looking for 350+ hp. Allready got a build TH350 that can handle around 600hp what they say.
