I believe the only fillers that work on the wagon are from the sedan...I've checked on these before...
You are correct. You can use '82-'83 Regal wagon and '82-'87 Regal sedan fillers.
Rear bumpers and guards are the same for all '78-'83 wagons and '78-'87 El Caminos.
Love the wagon. I had an '81 Century wagon a few years back.
'78-'81 Buick G-wagons are Century's.
In '82, the Century name went to the new fwd A platform so '82-'83 wagons became Regals.

You are correct. I originally was. Block wasn't good once I tore it apart and I said eff it. Didn't do anything for awhile and my pops offered me a deal by purchasing the 383 for me and working on it to give himself something to do during retirement. Plus he has more knowledge with old school so it will be easier to trouble shoot anything.

Sweet! I have an 83 in the driveway but its a junk car. No tailgate, no engine/trans, and unfortunately we used it as a painting booth. Interior is wrecked also.
My 83 Malibu wagon that will be getting the engine in it that you see below. Blue Print 383 with roller cam. The engine is about 4X the cost of the car itself when it had the stock engine.

Hunter,
Would you consider selling a few small parts out of it? It's not for me, but for another Malibu wagon guy that's missing a few things on his newly acquired wagon.

Yep...the fillers are gone...thinking of tucking the rear bumper and making small fillers out of metal to fill that void. My neighbor does body work as a side job and is good. I think Regal coupe fillers will work in the front...

Only thing I need is a right rear bumper guard as mine is dented.

Thanks for checking her out...
There is a Regal wagon in a salvage yard here - I think it has the front fillers. Could check if you like? thanks

I would have to talk to my dad. The only things salvageable are the body panels. We are pulling the dash for my 78. What parts does he need?

Here is our latest G-body. !983 Malibu wagon. After some touches it will be going to Vancouver, Wash to be a player in the Sportsman class at PIR.

Very nice, Bruce.
I like the color. I assume it's a street and strip car.
