Malibu Wagon Update



Tommy has been a busy man, as he approaches his retirement (Only 5 days to go pal!). He has been working hard on the '80 Malibu Wagon, with almost no help from yours truly (sorry about that again pal). The big block is in and running, and we finally figured out the torque converter issue. He peg-legged it around the block....but I will wait to the first real burnout to get some picz. You should see how far he has gotten....look at these:


He ran his fuel system and is in the process of installing his new 4.11 rear with custom trailing arms.






Check out his new wheels and the slicks. The front end got new springs and 2" drop spindles to lower the ride. The big block springs were WAY too high. The rear tires look like a tight fit; we will try the spacers, but a mini-tub job may be in order.
