Hello all,

Looking to get my Malibu sorted out and looking/handling the way I see it in my head.
Here's how it sits right now...I am the second owner, 113k miles on the wee6. Drives smooth and runs great. I slapped on the welds just for something other than stock and I got them cheeeeeeeeeeeeeap. Not quite the look I am after...

Looking to drop it a bit, get some 16's on it all the way around and put the cowl hood on it. Eventually the drivetrain will be changed, but for now I am just driving it as is.

I'm mostly into riding bikes, but this is my other bad habit.:headbang:

Welcome! I had a two tone 78 with the same wheels I sold a few years back. Now working on my 81 when I can (mines still got the 6 also).

Thanks all. I just need about 5k to get the ball rolling.:6gears:

Simple Hotchkis suspension package is all I need. Nothing fancy like some of the ones I've seen so far.:headbang: Then on to interior.
