as a malibu fan and owner of two .i beg you to not destroy this part of history .this car is a important part of g-body history.i don't know why everyone on here is so quick to tell you to strip it and toss whats left to the scrap pile.i may be alone but i i say bring that car back to it former self and put the wagon on hold till times are better.i would love to here the story about how you came to own the car......thanks clint

clint, I've been a member over at MalibuRacing.com for a few years now. Just not on it as much since most of the members seem to like the straight line performance alittle more than I care for. As for the Malibu, I wouldn't dare scrap it, it has a good solid rust free body that I would save to build later on. That is if I swap the parts over to the wagon. As for how I obtained it, I was following the build in the mag. I bought a wrecked 96 Impala SS and was going to do the swap on another Malibu I have but had some questions about the swap. I jumped on the CC message board and saw a comment about it being on Ebay. Needless to say I got in contact with Henry D and placed the winning bid. The rest is history as they say.

I'm a hardcore wagon guy and also happen to own a Malibu Wagon, so I'm probably a little prejudiced. I say "do the wagon!!!"

Oh, and post pics as you do.

i think a swap wouldnt be a bad thing but keep the 2dr a roller with the wagon suspension parts then either sell the 2dr,,,,,, but what ever happens dont let the 2dr get destroyed thats a sweet looking 2dr and the fact that its a true 78 enhances it as a whole considering most malibus get turned drag i believe still gotta save some for the street ....lastly from searching craigslist in my area doing g-body searches the 78-83 malibus have low numbers just my .02 GL

I'm not a wagon guy but yours looks sweet ... Swap everything you can over and part the rest of the Bu out....I would buy that shell in a heart beat IF I had the means....hard to find solid shells here in Canada...

[clint]
