Malibu Wagon owner - Lateral-g Forums

Hey everybody. I own an 82 Malibu wagon that hasnt seen much attention due to school. My plans for it though are to start with a simple(ha) LS1, and 700r, or T56 swap to get it on the road, and upgrade the motor later as I acquire funds. Not sure on suspension yet though. I don't know if I want to do air ride, or lowering springs yet.

The sticker in the below pic is actually covering up a hole from good knows what. At least they didn't attempt to do a hack job bondo fix

I'm a ford guy, but for some reason I'm looking forward to your project! I'm just imagining a low, lean, mean, corner carving malibu wagon with an LS1 growl going down the road. Can't wait to see progress pics.
