damn, i havent been here in awhile
i havent been on this site in a good couple of months. It seems like it isnt as busy as it used to be, maybe today is just slow. But im going to try and get in here more often. Im in school for architecture and i have been spending alot of my time on my design class which is 4 hours long and then another 4 hours per day working on the projects. I really miss my car its at home being driven once a week by my dad and i really need to go for a long drive in it. But whats kool i get to write an essay about my car for my english class to bump my grade up a whole letter. So hows everyone been

nice how long ago did you finish it ?
that question must come before i ask how do you like driving it . . .
Then i was gonig to ask is it everything you thought it would be? I dont think i have ever seen a malibu that year/style around here, looks like a small car . . how much does it weigh

finished it around the beginning of april only things left are to hook up the A/C and new stereo and new upholstry
Love driving in i have honestly never had the brute power of this motor in a car before. even though it is just a simple crate motor it hauls *** for how ****** of a rearend it has in it
the car is more than i thought it would be in overall cost but it's also more in the fact where i would rather drive it than my taurus daily but that's why i have the taurus.
It is not a small car three people can fit in the rear seat very comfortably my father is 6'3" and has no problems with me 6'5" in the front driving.
the car is rare only because most have been turned into dirt racing cars and most were 4-door cars. this car had 2,000 dollars of extras put on it in 78' by the original owner, another note of rareity it that i was at a carshow recently with 450+ cars and i was the only malibu of this vintage there
overall weight of the car is probably right around 3000lbs not horrible but could definatly be lightened up if needed
