Howdy. I've been registered for awhile but for some reason haven't posted. I'm a GM G-body guy and have been playing with Monte SS's for about 10 years now. Current projects are an 88 SS, and an 80 Malibu. Had the SS for a few months when it was stolen, stripped, and recovered. Spent the next 5 years restoring it and adding a few upgrades. Basic 350/vortec/xe268 engine still gets 20mpg on the hwy. Hotchkis suspension with the B-body spindle swap up front. 17x9 ZR1 wheels with 275/40/17's all the way around. It's a nice driver/show car.

The Malibu was my grandfather's car. The 229/200c/2.29 gears had to go right away. Current drivetrain is a 383/2004R/3.73's. Lots of Monte SS bolt-ons, and 4th gen Fbody seats. It will get the full resto someday when I'm motivated.

Looks like a nice site so far.

Hi Brian,
Welcome aboard. The malibu I am building came from St. Joseph. Sounds like it came with the same driveline as yours. I found it on ebay, flew out and drove it home. Small world. Post some pictures, we love pictures around here.
Oh yeah, enjoy the ride here.
