Looks like you have a good project there. Where I am from Malibu's are hard to find. The drag racers and stock car guys used them all up. I would keep it mobile and enjoy it while you work on it. Do one project at a time and keep it driveable during the good months.

I DRIVE DOWN THAT ROAD EVERYDAY TO WORK AND IT WAS LIKE HALF A MILE AWAY IF THAT .. THERE WAS A CAPRICE ON 24S IN THE SAME SPOTFOR A FEW WEEKS
THEN THIS MAILBU .. JUST SITTING ON THE SIDE OF A MAJOR TRAFFIC ROAD . SAW IT FOR A 2-3 WEEKS THEN
FINALLY TOOK A LUNCH BREAK WENT TO CHECK IT OUT . SAW IT HAD TBI / HEADERS/ SIGN STATED "CAM" , DECENT STANCE,
MOST OF THE INTERIOR .
SO CALLED HE WANTED 5500 IN THE SIGN .. DEFF STEEP FOR A PROJECT/ TOY FOR ME.. ON THE PHONE HE DROPPED TO 3500
THAT DAY .. WAS LOOKING AT A 96 COBRA ASWELL BUT THAT SOLD, SO I WAITED ANOTHER WEEK THEN CALLED AGAIN STANDING
NEXT TO THE CAR ASKED IF IT RAN AND DROVE AND IT DID .. HE CAME DOWN WE BULLSHITTED ABIT THEN
GOT HIM TO 2000 CASH ON THE SPOT... DROVE IT HOME ..

AND I GOTTA SAY LAST PROJECT WAS A 66 F100 STEPSIDE 302/AOD/CROWN VIC/ AIR BAGGED AND I HAD NO IDEA WHAT THIS CAR WAS BESIDES A CHEVY , DRIVING PAST AT 630AM @40MPH LOL I HAD TO LOOK AT PICS OF 80S CHEVYS TILL I FOUND THE FRONT END LOL
IM SUPER STOCKED ABOUT THIS PROJECT LOVE THE WAY IT SITS LOVE THE POTENTAL I SEE FOR IT AND AM HAPPY TO OWN IT. ONLY THING I KNEW ABOUT G- BODIES WAS THE G/N . ALMOST BOUGHT ONE OF THOSE TOO BUT ANOTHER TO SLOW TO GET THERE .
